Buy recommendations Shotgun Red Dot recommend.
Any suggestions for a Shotgun red dot? I am looking for one with a 2moa dot and 32moa circle. Must be able to be mounted on a pic rail.
What do you guys have and suggest? Open to Amazon if proven to be reliable.

I have a holosun 510c on my shotgun. I have astigmatism and it’s crisp as hell. 👌

Really my 407co x2 sucks for my astigmatism

Is it red or green. I only use green cause red is still shit for me. On any optic.

Mine is red it literally looks like a smear lol unless I wear my glasses I don’t need glasses but I am near sighted. Maybe green is the way then lol thanks

I run use a Primary Arms SLX1 on my 1301, I like it. I prefer green personally, also limited options with astigmatism. Red dots aren’t too bad, but a bit blurry for me.

What shotgun, we need to know to give you mounting options?

Panzer Arms M4 clone. I managed to get a decent one that doesn't have any major issues so no crap about it being a Turkish gun. Lol

I'd just buy an optic mount, scaler works makes one. The monstrum ones on Amazon are fine, and then you can pick a dot. You should be able to get some thing in an RMR or T1 footprint and that will give you lots of options

Been really enjoying the Sig Romeo 5* on mine, it even comes with tasty batteries!
(Not a joke, they had a small recall due to those batteries being... too child friendly I guess... )
*Only a simple dot though, but shake awake and a few other really nice QOL things on it

The Olight red dots off Amazon are well regarded. I bought a 260 dollar model that has a green 2moa dot and 32moa circle. Haven't used it yet tho.

They have one thats a closed emitter with an RMR footprint.
I have the older model with the RMSc footprint. Its actually a wicked little closed emitter. The only thing is RMSc foot print mounting plates are not easy to get.
Buy it directly from Olight, the shipping is the same and they have sale on this stuff all the time.
I would avoid any of the models they sell with the charging cover. You red dots batter will last forever, especially since these have a shake awake feature and with a rechargeable model you will probably lose the cober charger thing before you ever actually need to use it. Batteries are cheap and easy to change.
