Here's a quick test of the Burris FastFire MRD. Version tested was P/N 300231, mounted in a LaRue Tactical IronDot AK mount.

fire the the weapon. test the G's on that optic! Try firing under the sun, check out if you can still see the dot

No longer have the test unit, and it was a temporary mount. I have no doubt that the FF will survive shotgun recoil, as it is designed to do so. That said, the FF is not a choice I'd consider for bet-your-life-on-it performance.

i got the sightmark, which is very similar to this, and it sucks. the optic does not hold it's zero.

@sf7708 RED DOT, RED DOT! I vote no on the tasco, but your luck with it amazes me

@cal4397 I've got one piggy backing on my high mag scope on my .223 varminter AR. Great sight

@gasdorf uhhhhh do I really have to answer that? Preferred sight? Not everyone wants to look at the bead. Plus it is higher off the barrel- easier acquisition. Red dot sights are fan freakin tastic buuuddy

@glockcocker haha and pay 2.5 times as much. That is the point

The Mossberg 590 does not need anything beyond ghost rings calibrated to 100 yards with a slug. Within 25 yards, if you see it in your ring, your pumping it full of 30 caliber balls. The only thing I would do ( and have done ) for my 590A1 is get a custom machined bull barrel to simulate a choke for tighter patterns after 20 yards ( and it works ).

Go cheap, practice often. Put that fancy red dot shit on a rifle.

All aside though, thats a quality optic.

I used (and still do) a Tasco red dot, which is similar to the Burris Fast Fire, for 10 years on a Glock 34 as a cop. A battery change every six months was all I needed. Providing the Burris is as good a sight, I would bet my life on a red dot sistem in a life or death situation.
