The Burris FastFire 4 delivers rapid target acquisition with dual reticle options in a compact micro red dot platform. This sight combines a precision 3 MOA dot for accuracy with an 11 MOA circle-dot reticle for close-quarters speed, switching between configurations instantly.
What Makes This Different
Unlike single-reticle optics, the FastFire 4 provides two distinct aiming points optimized for different shooting scenarios. The 3 MOA dot excels at precision shots beyond 50 yards, while the 11 MOA circle-dot configuration accelerates target engagement at defensive distances. Eight brightness settings maintain visibility across lighting conditions, from bright daylight to low-light environments.
Key Features
- Dual reticle system: 3 MOA precision dot and 11 MOA circle-dot for versatility
- Compact 1.14" x 0.73" footprint fits pistol slides and carbine rails
- Eight brightness settings with auto-shutoff after 8 hours
- Tool-free windage and elevation adjustments with audible clicks
- CR1632 battery provides 5+ years of continuous operation
- Matte black anodized aluminum construction resists corrosion
- Compatible with standard pistol mounting plates and Picatinny rails
Field performance centers on the FastFire 4's ability to adapt to changing engagement requirements without sight changes. Competition shooters benefit from the precise 3 MOA dot for accuracy stages, then switch to the circle-dot for speed events. Law enforcement applications leverage the dual reticle system for both precision shots and rapid close-quarters response. The sight maintains zero through recoil cycles and temperature variations.
