Ade Advanced Optics RD3-006B GREEN Dot Reflex Sight + Optic Mounting Plate for Ruger LC9,LC380,LC9S Pistol + Picatinny Mounting Plate

I've owned this optic package for several months now, and it's been dependable from day one. The mounting plate fit my Ruger LC9 perfectly, and the sight has maintained zero through regular practice. The green dot is bright without being overpowering, battery life has been better than expected, and the controls are simple to use. For shooters looking to add an optic to the LC9 platform without spending premium-brand money, this package offers excellent performance for the price.

The optic itself performs fine, but after installation my original carry holster no longer fit the pistol correctly. That's not really the optic's fault, but it's something buyers should keep in mind if they plan on carrying their LC9 every day. I ended up purchasing a different holster.

I had read several online discussions that made replacing the rear sight sound intimidating, so I expected this project to take all afternoon. Using a sight pusher, the factory sight came out without much trouble, and the mounting plate fit nicely. Once the optic was mounted, I bore-sighted it before heading to the range. It only required a few minor adjustments before I was consistently hitting where I wanted at 15 yards. The adjustment clicks were predictable, which made zeroing simple. I've been carrying the pistol during weekend hikes and have also used it for multiple practice sessions. The optic has stayed secure, the glass remains clear, and the green dot has been easy to pick up under both cloudy and sunny conditions. Overall, I'm impressed with the performance considering the cost.

Most of my shooting is at an indoor range, and the green dot is extremely easy to see against darker targets. The window is clear with very little tint. No complaints after several range sessions.

The sight has worked well so far and holds zero nicely. The only issue I had was removing the battery cover the first time—it was much tighter than expected. Once I got the battery installed everything worked perfectly. Overall, it's been a good purchase.

I've looked at several mini reflex sights that cost three or four times as much, but I wasn't sure I wanted to spend that kind of money on my LC380. This package seemed like a reasonable place to start. After installing it and spending an afternoon at the range, I was pleasantly surprised. The green dot is crisp, brightness adjustment is straightforward, and I found it much easier to stay on target during rapid-fire strings. The included mounting plate fit my pistol correctly without modification. I've now put around 600 rounds through the gun using a mix of FMJ and defensive ammunition. The optic has remained securely mounted and hasn't lost zero. If someone asks for an affordable optic package for the Ruger LC9 series, I'd feel comfortable recommending this one.

One thing I appreciated was not having to hunt down extra mounting parts. The optic, mounting plate, battery, tools, and screws were all included. Installation took a little patience, but once everything was together it looked factory installed. Very satisfied.

I wasn't expecting much at this price, but the optic feels solid right out of the box. The aluminum housing has a quality feel, and the controls have a positive click. Mounted it on my Ruger LC9S, zeroed it in about 20 rounds, and it's been running great ever since. Excellent value.

Easy installation. Works just fine, especially for the price. Will most likely order one for my glock.
