Ade Advanced Optics RD3-006 Reflex Sight for Handgun – Compact Optic with Doctor/Venom Footprint, Green/Blue Dot Options, Picatinny Mount Included, Reflex Sight for Pistols and Scopes

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.

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

Easy install. Strong material used. Easy to use.

Works OK - front button will click up the green dot intensity when racking the slide if you're not careful to keep your hands away from the front of the unit. Use a laser boresight to set up POA or you will waste more ammo than the cost of the unit sighting it in. Took me quite a bit of practice using a red or green dot sight on a pistol without co-witness open sights. The dot is elusive without a reference and can get "lost in space". Once found, the dot is accurate, great to use, but getting there took me a while. Still undecided whether to keep it on my SP2022 or go back to the open sights, which are very accurate and line up without a fuss or a search, just like... open sights!

It got here quickly, was packaged good, has tools, cover, dial in scale tool, actual instructions, cleaning cloth. Sight is not cheap looking. Made from solid aluminum, green dot is clear and sharp, highest brightness setting is very bright and does have a slight "desert sun at noon" starburst. This doesn't bother me because I wont ever use it where I am. Wife likes it there for her use. I used It on a 22 pistol for competition 1" Disc, Steel tree, shooting. Went right on, adjusted easily, stayed on true the whole time for about 250 shots. Friends with higher end optics Liked it too. I do understand Chinese production and sometimes a bad one does get by, just like here. Always a gamble with online purchasing for sure. Friend got a broken U.S. made sight right out of the box for $500+ I'll get back after next time out with an update.

The optic looks good and has a decent price. I gave it a try. I installed the sight on my pistol and sited it in using a laser bore sighter that I have used before with excelent success. Took the pistol to the range and attempted to hit the target. The green dot would never stay in one spot after firing. even after adjusting windage, elevation and the set screws. (12" steel plate at 5 yards. ) When sighting down the side of the gun I could hit the plate but was lucky to hit it while looking through reflex sight. Do yourself a favor and find something else. To add insult to injurry I have to pay return shipping. :(

Just received my ADE Advanced Optics RD3-006A green dot mini reflex and have mounted it on my Glock 19 gen 3. I received it quickly, on time for me anyway and in excellent packaging with, to my surprise, tools even though I wouldn’t need them. Someone, however, may. Very good idea. The dot is nice and bright and the controls, mounts and glass are all commensurate with a much pricier option. The dot loses its edge with the higher intensity settings. The green dot is sharp, bright but at the highest setting you get a halo starburst effect. No matter, I will probably not use that setting; there are a few other settings that are effective. This was very easy to install you want to try out a red dot before going to a more high-end piece, this will work and to Zero In. Best purchase I have made for the price and outstanding for what you get.

Really good product, really good seller. The pistol I bought this for has tall sights. You have to loosen the screws on the back of this sight to adjust it, then tighten the screws again. With tall sights, you cannot access the locking screws without removal, then it is not zeroed anymore. Not a bad product, just didn't work in my application. I ordered a different style, but keeping this for another project. Still give 5 stars.
