Burris FastFire III's are really nice little red dots, I've got two of them and a FastFire II.

I was looking at those for one of my Mini 14's. Decided to stick with irons and save the optic purchase for my pending LE6920. A lot of folks say go with an Aimpoint or EO - do you have negatives to report with your Burris optics?

I don't have anything negative at all to say about them, I really like the FastFires.

I like it. I think you should do a thread on how you do the paint job.
