I can’t get into particulars but there is some really cool new products that I think will work for red dot users. There are no recoil restrictions and there are reticle options. There is some new rifle optic stuff also, if you’re going to SHOT stop by and see me. It’s always nice to meet forum members.

Hey Trapr, are they showing any of the new stuff at DSC? I'm trying to get away to run over there but my assistant chief got a skull fracture and 38 stitches from a wild cow so its a little iffy about getting away.

Curtis, they typically do a very small showing at DSC, otherwise I would be there as well as SHOT. So I doubt any new product will be released there.

I like Burris products... that said I hope they are going the same direction Ultradot did with the "6" that sight seems to be everything I'm looking for in a sight... my 1st one is going on my custom 8 shot 25 ACP, so, there should be little challenge on the sights durability from that gun... "when" I buy a 2nd it'll go on a boomer... looking forward to seeing the new Burris models

I’m not familiar with what the “6” is so can’t answer to that. However several new versions of red dots are coming out, some 1x and some magnified, I look forward to trying them out in the field.

Is there a good way to get a listing of the new products that are introduced by everyone? Is there a particular website that covers the subject well?

rWt, you might try the NSSF website they host SHOT, and I would guess all the latest releases would be featured on their site but only after officially released by the individual companies.

Ok they have officially been released so here is the poop on the stuff.
A new FastFire, it’s the FFIV, switchable reticles a 3moa dot, a 11moa dot, and both dots with larger illuminated circles around them, typically they are 48moa or 65moa, I am unclear as to which is used right now. It comes with a larger viewing screen, and a nice streamlined cover or cap, that makes finding the dot much easier due to creating an almost tube sight type appearance, the cover is attached with two small screws to eliminate accidental flying off due to recoil or bumping. Or you can not use the cover and it will simply be like a normal small reflex sight. It’s rated for 50000 hours of continuous use on a single battery..........yes that’s 50K.
Another new one, is a small tube red dot approximately 3” in length and 1.5” high, that will mount low enough for leverguns, or revolvers to use them, very similar to the Aimpoint Micro or T1, but much less money. This is the one I’m looking forward to placing on a hunting revolver, dot size is 2moa, it’s rated for 8000 hours of continuous illumination, aluminum body. It’s called the RT1.
There are some new scope lines aimed at middle of the road price range.
The red dots have no recoil restrictions, and should be available in the second quarter of 2020.
