Burris Optics entered 2024 with an update to its FastFire red-dot line-up. The New FastFire C is built specifically to work aboard micro-compact handguns designed for concealed carry. As a dedicated carry optic, weight was a primary consideration in its design, and the FastFire C weighs less than an ounce.

Powered by a single CR2032 battery, the FastFire C has a 25,000-hour runtime, allowing owners to carry their optic-equipped guns with confidence, knowing their sight won't wink out any time soon. A low-profile design ensures that the red-dot in the optic's window can be co-witnessed with standard-height open sights, negating the need for suppressor-height sights. An automatic system on board adjusts the dot's brightness to ambient lighting conditions.

Watch our "New For 2024" video above to see the new Burris Optics FastFire C in action.
