This green dot sight comes equipped with a Picatinny mounting base and is also compatible with various handgun mounting plates that replace the rear sight dovetail. It's designed to fit the Doctor Footprint Plate/Slide seamlessly.
The on/off switch for this sight is conveniently positioned at the front, making it much easier to press compared to red dots with side-mounted switches. It features a 3 MOA dot size and offers 5 illumination settings. The sight is fully adjustable for windage and elevation and can be locked into place. With unlimited eye relief and various illumination settings, it is powered by an included lithium CR2032 battery.
Since its initial release in 2014, we've implemented numerous improvements to enhance its durability, ensuring it can withstand recoil while also improving its ability to hold zero. The front switch, battery housing, and hardware have all been recently updated, reflecting our commitment to continuous enhancement. This product is proudly designed in Oregon.
Although it's feasible to install the optic on a handgun without the assistance of a gunsmith, we highly recommend seeking the expertise of a professional for the installation process. It's essential to note that unprofessional installations, such as improper torque application, can lead to issues like loose screws, an inability to hold zero, damage to the firearm or optic, and even pose a risk of personal injury.
If you're not seeing a perfect round dot but instead observe a splashed dot, half-moon shape, multi-dot, or starburst, there's a high probability (99%) that you might have astigmatism without being aware of it. What you perceive is likely a small reflection of the LED light on the lens. A quick and simple way to confirm this is by using your cellphone to take a photo of the dot. If the photo shows a circular dot, you've essentially diagnosed yourself with astigmatism.

Best sub $50 3MOA Green Dot Reflex Ever!!!
Went out on limb, being a Sightmark, Vortex and EOTech fan, and gambled on a sub $50 optic because I needed it stat! Was very pleased with this reflex sight...Fit right, Looked right, Adjusted right and Shot right. The best thing about it was that they provide a quality rubber cover, unlike al the hard plastic ones others have that break easily.

ADE green dot
What more can I say but you can't beat the price, durability,and function. This great little sight is just what I needed for my Canik tp9sfx. I own mostly Sig products and seems to be just as good as they are. Thanks for producing a quality sight at a affordable price.

Excellent product for price!
Bought it with doubts due to price difference from most entry level sights. Works great, had dialed in within 6 shots and have not had to adjust since. The only downside is the dot is dim on almost all but max brightness settings. However, I am leaving as a 5 star because I live in Las Vegas and it is extremely bright all day. Have not shot at night, but assume it would be much easier to see on lower settings.

Improves My Colt Defender Sights
My Co2 Colt Defender has somewhat loosy gun sights so said Green Dot Sight is needed to remedy such a flawed design aspect. The dot sight has 04 brightness settings(the latter two only matters) which greatly improves the overall precision shooting experience. The installation of this item (like with most add-ons)was a minor chore to do. All in all,I'm quite pleased with the final outcome.

Works like a charm
Easy install and actually holds zero pretty well on my tp9sfx. Only complaint would be the power button, it's kind of in an awkward spot on the very front of the optic.

F×$%!@& AWESOME
Its awesome! Not water proof but itll definitely hold zero, I left it out and my toddlers used it to play catch the optic and some wallball AND IT HELD ZERO. After a box it still held on the 9mm. With no parallax or star shaped dot I will definitely recommend this company. I might trade it in for the waterproof RD3-009 but I think I prefer the green dot over red. Either way you'll be shooting with both eyes wide open w/o problems. Just buy it dude it's worth the money

Read before you buy a more expensive sight.
Not a bad sight. Works as well as my $300 vortex red dot. Makes me wonder why I ever spent that much in the first place. You can buy a more permanent base made for your gun for around $20, then mount this sight to it. So for less than$75 you get the same result as a $300 plus red dot sight. You can sight it in with the quick release mount it comes with then take it off for storage. When you want to use it again Just snap it back on and it will still hit within 3" of center without adjusting. Unless your trying to hit a squirrel in the head that's plenty close enough.

Fantastic Optic
I waited awhile to make a review on this optic. It acceded my expectations but a big margin. I bought this to put on a 9mm SAR k2P. Holds zero, the dot is easy to see and despite me grabbing it to rack the slide the finish and glass hasn't been effected. If your looking for a budget friendly micro dot i suggest you try this one out.
