Feature-rich, versatile and reliable, the StrikeFire II is a great choice for shooters who want a quality red dot sight, but don't want to break the bank. Features sleek rear-facing controls for power on/off and easy adjustment of ten dot intensity levels-lowest two settings are night-vision compatible.

Review: TREMENDOUS VALUE & the BEST WARRANTY IN THE BIZ! - GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY!! But then again, it’s a Vortex! This is a 4moa red/green dot optic that can easily be changed for brightness and color! I’m older, my kids mention that way too often now, and given my astigmatism, I prefer the green dot setting but many prefer the red so it’s great to have the option! Sometimes I switch back and forth just to see if I’m actually getting younger? Benjamin Button’s got nothing on me! 😂 Best part is u can adjust the colored dot brightness way down for long range, 100yard+ shooting, the dot is more like a 2moa dot or less, in this setting! Cranker up for close range and you’ve got the best of all worlds! Also night-vision compatible for you “snoopers.” Very accurate optic with 1” groups at 100 yards zero even with my feeble eyes and shelf ammo! Paired this with the UTG Super Slim Flip up front and rear sights, and the Vortex Strikefire II with the cantelever mount can be adjusted on the rail for a lower 1/3 co-witness view with the UTG sights! Obviously your results may differ pending your line of sight on your favorite Gal! Running on a 5.56/.223 Pistol with a 7.5” barrel! She’s tight!! Super easy to install and super easy to sight in, use the smallest dot size setting when sighting in, and remember to shoot with both eyes open! Once you get used to this “both eyes open” style, Target acquisition is super fast and easy even for us old guys! Just remember, OLD GUYS RULE! 😜 Excellent combo and you might want to try the 36/300 yard zero with the 25yard adjusted zero targets for the 5.5" center mass strike zone out to 300 yards. Very impressive and might just become your favorite zeroed yardage? Most shooting ranges accommodate the 25, 50, 75, and 100 yard pins so the 25 yard adjusted zero targets gives you the 25 yard point of aim zero and a 36 yard point of impact zero so you can easily adjust for a 36yard point of impact zero when shooting at the 25 yard pin distance. Not many ranges offer a 36 yard pin so I hope that makes sense for you? Check out Vigilance Elite and ARMA Dynamics for printable targets with caliber details for your shooting range. Watch Shawn Ryan's 36yard zero video and you'll get the picture real quick. Thank you for your service Mr. Ryan! As is so typical of Vortex, this is one great value for the money! Way more features than optics at twice the price, and that extra savings allows for some nice additional mods and extra ammo!! Best of all, there’s the Vortex VIP (VERY IMPORTANT PROMISE) warranty which means that your product purchase is a 100% unlimited lifetime warranty-fully transferable, and no receipt needed. in Vortex’s own words, “VIP stands for a Very Important Promise to you, our customer. We will repair or replace your Vortex product in the event it becomes damaged or defective-at no charge to you. If we cannot repair your product, we will replace it with a product in perfect working order of equal or better physical condition. You see, it doesn’t matter how it happened, whose fault it was or where you purchased it. If you ever have a problem, no matter the cause, we promise to take care of you.” Who does that these days? VORTEX DOES! The only issue is that I didn't get a camo Vortex hat with my purchase as that deal wasn't offered when I purchased the Strikefire II optic. Who doesn't need another camo hat? WAAAAAHH! ;-> God Bless Vortex! Great Products, Great People, Great Warranty, and Great Service! A truly great Company! Drink up me Hearties! YoHo!
Review: Fantastic Gift—My Son Couldn’t Be Happier! - I picked up the Vortex Strikefire II as a present for my son, and it was an instant hit. The optic feels sturdy and well-made, and he really likes having both the red and green dot options to choose from depending on the environment. He mentioned that installation was straightforward and getting it zeroed took no time at all. Once set, it stayed perfectly consistent. The 4 MOA dot is crisp, bright, and easy to see, making target acquisition fast and smooth. All in all, he’s thrilled with it, and I’m really impressed with what you get for the price. A solid choice if you’re looking for a dependable red/green dot sight.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why can’t this item be shipped to California?**
A: this item is perfectly legal in California. I purchased a rifle from a CA dealer and this site was included. But site can be purchased separately. no idea why amazon would not allow this to ship to CA.

**Q: does this have the tall mount compatible to the AR or the short mount for rifles**
A: This comes with a lower 1/3 cowitness, cantilever mount. I have it on an AR and it allows the front sight to sit in the lower one-third of the viewing window, leaving the red dot above the front sight. There is a separate true cowitness mount available from Vortex that will have your red dot line up dead center with the front sight.

**Q: What is the moa on this.?**
A: It's a 4 MOA dot.  Not really for precision shooting but works great on a carbine.  Holds zero riding in my pickup where it lives...

**Q: how will this handle heavy recoil, like from a performance center s&w .460?**
A: I don't know on a 460. However it does very good with a 308 ar-10. Out of the box no professional tools to mount. Just eyeballing it. Bullseye 1st round on a cold gun that hasn't even been fired. Now has about 50 rounds through it and still on tgt.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Civilian Sheepdog Optic
*by T***S on June 12, 2014*

This Optic is perfect for the Civilian Sheepdog. I mounted it on my AR and took it to the range to zero it in. Zeroed in after 10 shots, I then proceeded to pump 300 rounds through my AR. The Strikefire held perfect Zero each and every shot, I then switched to my MBUS sights, they Co Witnessed perfectly. I highly recommend this Optic. If you are looking for an affordable Red Dot with great quality, look no further. Update: Just got back from the range, and you guessed right. 200 more rounds down range 100 yards and my groupings were were within 1.5 inch grouping. Held Zero, This is one rock solid Optic. Used my MBUS sights along with the dot, Dead on. Perfect Co witness, A note: on the Windage and Elevation caps you will notice a extrusion, This is for adjusting the Windage and Elevation the Cap fits the adjustment. so no need for carrying a screwdriver or coin to do the adjusting with. Vortex listened to it's customers and made the Strikefire 2 Better than the original strikefire. The controls are instinctive, the Flip up lens covers Snap easily into position and are secure.(note, the Strikefire 2 does not come with the Screw in 2X, like the orgianl Strikefire) I really don't like sounding like a cheerleader, But i am so impressed with this Optic, No it's not a Trij, Or Eo, But it is not all that far behind. Water proof, fog proof, and it's rugged. I did run and gun with it (similar to 3 gun) and it took a beating and held Zero. I'm a retired LEO with 20 years in. and this is as good as i ever used as a Road Officer or on the SRT. Yes Definitely the Civilian Sheepdogs Optic. And another Update: Purchase the Vortex Absolute Co-Witness Mount from Amazon and installed it. Had to re-zero the optic, and that was no problem to do. the Absolute Co witness is fantastic as it centers your back up sights with your red dot in your optic. I suggest the extra purchase. And if you would like to see a good review of this Optic i suggest you watch http://youtu.be/Lq_T1meyf0U Very informative Video.
