Generally, the least expensive decent miniature red dot is the Burris Fastfire II.
As for the more expensive ones, there are quite a few with Trijicons mentioned above probably being near the top of the list. Insight also makes a very nice version. Personally, I would probably look at Leupold's Delta Sight. It is available with a triangular aiming point which, in my opinion makes for a good combination of speed (use it just like a dot) and precision (aim with fine vertex). ILya

I know the question is about centered around the window style of dot scopes. However, I had the uncommon luck to train someone on the P90 who can only process data from one eye - effectively blind in one eye. My experience is that I would still suggest you carefully mull over the Aimpoint suggestions before going with one of the window style sights. The issue with the window style is they tend to have a narrow visibility angle because of the way they are illuminated - it is extremely easy to end up too high and not be able to pick up the dot. If you are going with one, get one the uses a battery powered light source. The dots are much more intense and easier to pick up than the tritium for folks with vision issues.
If you reconsider the tube style mount the tube as far forward as you can this really helps with folks who don't have both eyes working. The reason is that it allows you to look around the scope much more effectively which is likely what is bothering you about the tube style scopes. On the flip side if this is just a fun gun.... run whatever you like. :) Just my two cents... |

Thanks man, that is very helpful. I figured on here someone would know what to get. I didn't expect someone to be experienced with one eye shooting. I hadn't noticed it before, but all my stuff is battery illuminated. I do have a hard time seeing the other style now that you mention it.
I am going to get that delta point by leupold.
The SWFA site doesn't say..... does that come standard with picatinny attachment? It says a whole bunch of mount types on that other site I found... but I don't know if that means it will fit on my picatinny rail. Edited by Ick - April/29/2010 at 08:59 |

I hate to be a nag, but I want to order this from SWFA today. Does it automatically come with an attachment for a picatinny rail?

OK, what the heck? No answer? Does this come with the picatinny rail attachment?
I bought an ELCAN from SWFA in August of 2009 so I am a repeat customer. Am I being blackballed or something? Edited by Ick - May/07/2010 at 10:09 |

Have you called and spoke with someone? The SWFA gang most likely hasn't seen this thread.

Will do. I thought this was the place to ask questions before you order online?
I was actually going to order it online but I don't mind calling.
I will see what they have to say. Edited by Ick - May/09/2010 at 14:41 |
