Red Dot For Pistol $100

[sjs]

I need a red dot for around 100 bucks.

Needs:
1. 3MOA or smaller dot
2. Small size
3. Adjustable intensity

Nice but not necessary:
1. Adjustable dot size
2. Precise, repeatable zero adjustments
3. Easy battery access.

Any recomendations are appreciated.

Seems the Hawke's would fit that niche. I have a couple and they work well. There are some deals out there if you shop around. Here's one on my 1701P.

Thanks, I have a Hawke rifle scope and it is a lot of scope for the money. I will check them out.

I need a red dot for around 100 bucks.

Needs:
1. 3MOA or smaller dot
2. Small size
3. Adjustable intensity

Nice but not necessary:
1. Adjustable dot size
2. Precise, repeatable zero adjustments
3. Easy battery access.

Any recomendations are appreciated.

Needs:
1. 3MOA or smaller dot Only one sight has 1 minute dot. EOTech. Expensive, and "holographic". Two and three minute dot sights are easily available. But not costing $100 or less !
2. Small size Most, but not all are small. Fitting easily on a semi-auto firearms slide.
3. Adjustable intensity. Most all have brightness adjustability. Some only a step or two, some as many as 12 steps,. (the more expensive ones).

Nice but not necessary:
1. Adjustable dot size NO one has adjustable dot diameters.
2. Precise, repeatable zero adjustments. ALL better sights have repeatable zero adjustment
3. Easy battery access. Again, all better, more modern sights have easy access to the battery. BUT...Some sights (Holosun for one) has 30,000 to 50,000 hours battery life. The 50,000 is about the life of the LED itself ! Plus that, some (Holosun) now have sights that have solar panels on them to keep the sight working when the battery dies.

AT3 2 MOA dot

I like the AT3 dots and have recommended them before as an inexpensive alternative. My preference, like Mike, is Holosun though. I have multiples of the various AT3 dots and have noticed that at least one seems to eat batteries rather quickly.
