It’s none of my business, but 8 moa seems a bit large , unless all of your shooting will be up close and on large game! I’m using a 3 moa on my handgun….wouldn’t want it any larger. JMO. memtb


I own a couple of 3 moa Fast Fires mounted on handguns. They seem a little small to me. This is why I want to try a 8 on the model 89. Shots are pretty much limited to 50 yards or less on our property when deer hunting. 6 might be perfect if I could find one.

My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.
