Less Than $100 Red Dot Sight for Ruger 22/45 Lite (black).

[RugerRob]

Been reading alot on the internet about red dot sights and there are alot of mixed reviews. I see alot of good things about ones like the burris are is in the $200.00+ range but I just can't see spending that much for one on a .22 plinker pistol.

Anyone have experience with the Trueglo Red Dots?

Saw this one at Bass Pro yesterday...

Have looked on Amazon as well at some of them, and all of them have mixed reviews. I really don't want a red dot that looks like a scope and like the open design like the true glow better.

Any recommends in the below $100.00 range on a red dot for a 22/45.

Stay AWAY from barska- absolute crap. it sucked on a pellet gun so anything with powder, no way. i'd say remember "cheap is cheap". it did go right on my SW22A but the 1 red dot became 5 or 6 red flecks after 1 mag

I have one for my AR and 10/22 for plinking. I've been very impressed with this sight for under $100.

I put a BSA PMRS on my 22/45. It works well.

No comment on Barska, but depending on what type of pellet gun you used, many good brands can't handle to dual recoil caused by the spring system in pump action air guns.

This one looks pretty big to be sitting up on top of a pistol....

Walmart carries this one, but the reviews on their site were not favorable... Still doing some searching.

I've been pretty happy with the Bushnell TRS-25 on my 22/45. Holds zero and has the smallest MOA dot I could find for under $100.

I just got a Bushnell TRS-25 off Amazon for $94. It has a lot of good reviews.

I put a BSA red dot on mine. Here is a video I did showing the red dot.
