Just a Hairy Special Snowflake supply clerk with no field experience, shooting an Asymetric carbine as a Try Hard. Snarky and easily butt hurt. Favorite animal is the Cape Buffalo....likely indicative of a personality disorder.

Had my 617/vortex viper out today. I'm a very novice revolver shooter but it made it fairly easy. I still am working on my wheelgun grip and presentation but i managed 9/10 @25 in 10 on an 8" plate. Also 4/10 @50 on the same 8" plate, i'd be lucky to get a hit with irons. Plus a random cylinder dump at 10 yards. My previous dot experience is limited to a week with a 19/rmr and a session with a 320rx. This thing is great, and I'm sure it will keep getting better.
10@25-1mike
10@10
10@50 - i lost focus then confidence and just started pressing bad shots but i managed 4/10. Better than i expected

I just ordered a Weig-A-Tinny to fit Ruger revolvers. I bought a Security Six, some time ago, with a severely abused rear sight*, and had bought a Millett rear sight, planning to use it to replace the factory rear sight, but I have an Aimpoint Micro T-1 4 MOA that is not currently busy, so it will soon be on the Security Six.
I understand that height-over-bore will be a concern. There is no such thing as a free lunch. As I see it, fixed-sight Speed Six or GP100 for close-range emergencies, and Aimpoint-sighted Security Six for social events in Wal-Mart parking lots.
*Early Security Six rear sights were made of quite soft metal, so easily damaged/worn.

Usually, when I get a visit from The Good Idea Fairy in the shape of something like "Hey! I should buy one of those Weigand rails for my GP100 and put a dot on it," if I just wait a few months somebody on P-F will try it first and I get to learn vicariously through them.
Thanks Rex!
I had an Ultradot Matchdot on my Ruger Super Redhawk in 480 Ruger and it worked perfectly through several hundred full-power 425gr loads; it now resides on my father-in-law's Dan Wesson 357 Super Magnum he uses for IHMSA. The Ultradots are a little under half the price of the Deltapoint/RMR/Acro type dots but they work, and have worked, on pistols for decades because they're not intended to ride on a reciprocating slide.
