Red-dot sight

[Mark B]

I'm a new to air guns, and to this forum. What type of air gun will do the least vibration damage to a red-dot sight? I have a Holosun 403B and heard that a spring piston will destroy a red-dot. A gas ram a little less destructive. And a PCP will do the least damage. I'm getting older and need to shoot with two eyes open. Thanks for your feedback.

HPA-CO2-SSP-MPP will not hurt a scope or red dot the jury is out on every red dot not holding up
the one you mention seems like a nice unit at a 2mm dot
i would contact the manufacture, they say under vibration 1000G

shoots flawlessly with a red dot

I'd suggest contacting Holosun and asking them if your optic will hold up to a springer.

I have used my Sig Romeo 5 and Romeo 4 red dots on many PCP and CO2 airguns and have never had any issues with them.

I was in the Air Force for 28+ years but not familiar with these acronyms. Please interpret: HPA-SSP-MPP

You will be ok on a pcp. Ive had one on a 50 cal for over a year and it holds zero perfectly.
