Clever... I like it. Really surprised it wasn't done before....
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Guns dont kill people. Dads with pretty Daughters do...!

That's cool!
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

Just how lono is that gonna last on a sig with the slide flinging back and fourth.....your Aim/target acusiton is gonna be right off and take ages to line up the next shot, not very clever in my opinion......

Doesn't stop the 3 Gun/IPSC guys. Depends on how well you control recoil!

Red dots are used in IPSC Open Division where everyone shoots with a compensator to reduce recoil.

Really? I suggest you check out "Slide ride" on some of the IPSC or 3 gun forums, there is lots of inforamation on the Brain Enos
I remember shooting a .40 cal CZ for modified devision (no compensator or barrel ports there!) back around the year 2000 with a mini sight mounted to the slide. Considerably more recoile than a Sig .22 and that dot was more than up to the job, but then again it wasn't a £30 ebay job.

As for loosing the dot during recoil, If you learn how to hold a pistol properly and control the muzzel flip then I can assure you that you should be able to keep the dot in view the whole time. It should just bounce within the lense.

Brookers,

(shooting pistols since 92 and still messing around with all things practical pistol related) :run:

There's already a wide choice of bases to fit the Burris onto a range of handguns.
The only difference here is that the mount is based around a standard rear-sight.
The Burris own make totally replace the rearsight, so are lower profile.
