what kind of red dot would be needed and not hard to put on for this gun

Doesn't need a "painted orange barrel tip" because it isn't a toy gun. Considered a real gun because it shoots projectiles (like a pellet and/or bb-gun)

Any red dot that mounts on a picatinny rail will go on the gun if you use a dremel to cut a shallow notch in the aluminum for the cross pin to fit in. However that will put a permanent cut on the gun, and any optics or sights are really pointless on a paintball gun since the paintballs curve in flight. It would only be good for looks. And make the gun heavier. Been there and done that.

Yeah I see no reason why you couldn't. The green dot just isn't bright enough for my liking. I wouldn't recommend buying this reflex sight. It isn't worth it. I gave mine to my brother for his Ar15. Shop around and Good luck.

This is designed just for these rifles and no other mount is needed. I would not recommend this red dot, I could not get it anywhere near zero when boresighting and the rear optic cracked while trying to adjust it. You get what you pay for.

There's really not a lot , it has a weaver rail , so you can have a red dot sight like I do and get a stock for sure , and I recommend changing the muzzle on it but overall its a good gun

You won't need a red dot on top of scope even though there are rails on the top and side to mount it. On 3 power you can still keep both eyes open and still see the large circle red dot for CQC applications without the need for another red dot. The red dot on top will be pretty high.

Nothing could be mounted on the top of the gun due to all the mechanism. There is enough space under the front that you could mount a red-dot laser pointer.

Yes it is metal and yes your red dot sight should work on it, I used them to mount a scope on one of my Tippman 98 paintball guns and I love it!

sorry for late reply. I would highly recommned it. this is no aimpoint, but its not too cheap or shabby. I have also heard that Primary Arms does a good red dot. You may want to check out that option. For the price you cant beat it.

I think with the right mount, a scope can be attached. I've purchased a red dot sight on Amazon ($15?) that I find amazing. I think it uses a "dovetail" mount. It and a scope restrict access to the chamber where you'd insert a pellet to a small degree, but since I use BBs mostly, I don't find it a problem. If you are doing most of your shooting at targets under fifty or sixty feet, I'd highly recommend the red dot instead of a scope.

Kyle I think that this is a multiple variable answer. First you must understand the weapon system that you are placing this on... Probably an M4 style system. Most of these systems range in accuracy from 1-3 MOA and probably closer to 3. These are generally not a precision weapon system and thus would not be used for competition shooting. This optic is designed for CQB and if the dot which at its brightest is maybe 3MOA, covering your target is highly improbable. Even at 100 to 200 meters which I think is the maximun range on red dot sights anyways it would cover perhps a 6 to 12 inch disc. Farther than that you are shooting in the "Neighborhood" of your target. So this optic is suited specifically for closer target acquisition where this should not be a concern. So I guess to answer your question it depends on what your intended use of your weapon system is... Defending your house or shooting small disc? I think that the answer should be simple and for that this optic is perfect. If you need anything else feel free to write me back.

to be right on a flat top AR you need a 1/2 inch riser 8 slot. Keep it right in front of your BUIS. Get it close to your eye. The small dot is wicked! Best red dot for the money! Youll be amazed

I have mine mounted to a 22 S&W; AR15. I would think your best option for a 12 gauge would be an Eotech. Any any rate I think the Redfield would last longer than your shoulder. With a 12 gauge the load is the most important. A #4 load is considered best for self defense whereas #7 shot is almost fun to shoot and make a good house load. Your slug, 00 buck, 0 buck can be pretty severe for everything. Most of what I said is for a pump, a semi-auto should absorb most of the recoil.

It has the attached mount on the red dot, MAKE SURE that you get the high mount.

No adjustments can be made to this bore sighter,simply insert this in the bore and adjust your sights or optics to match the red laser dot

I'm a big fan of red-dots and lasers for any gun. But I bought this pistol to teach my grandchildren how to shoot a pistol using iron sights. Once they learn that, I may put a red-dot on it. This is an accurate gun!!! Shoots a lot better than I do. So I would put a Leopold Delta Point or a Trijicon red-dot on it. Both pricey I know. With no recoil, any red-dot should hold up fine.

This optic does NOT have a red dot but you are able to center the optic to your red dot sight..once you have sighted in your red dot sight using the windage and elevation adjustments you simply mount this optic behind your red dot sight and adjust using the windage and elevation adjusters on the optic itself until your red dot is centered .

I think the targeted purchaser is for a bb gun,airsoft, and paintball.I would google top 10 red dot sights for center fire guns.The clarity is not on par with walther, but no one can complain;since it is inexpensive.
