Beretta CX4 optics

[1899]

My CX4 should be here any day and I'm looking at options for optics. I'd like a red dot of some sort. I guess an Aimpoint Micro T2 or EOtech EXPS 3 would be nice but I'm not interested in spending that kind of $.

Would like something middle of the road that will work well with the design of the CX4. What about the Vortex Sparc II? Or something like the Leupold DeltaPoint Reflex?

Lots of good results and posts on the CX4 + Vortex Sparc II including co-witnessed with factory iron sights. That would be my choice.

Yup. Vortex Sparc II is on mine as well.

I have a Tasco ProPoint red dot I paid less then $100 for. Still going strong after 3000 rounds. Can't beat that.

vortex spitfire on mine.
it also has the advantage of having a visible reticle if the battery gives out.

I considered a red dot on mine, then decided I really wanted to have a bit of magnification. I started with a 1-4x24 Vortex Crossfire II with a V-plex reticle, and I replaced it with later 1-6x24 Vortex Strike Eagle. I may return to the 1-4x simply because I really like the simplicity of that reticle.

The major limitation for mounting the scope is that we only have about 11" in length, unless we put the scope high enough to clear the rear iron sight's wing, which prevents a cheek weld. That's not an issue with a red dot with unlimited eye relief, of course.

First picture is with the Crossfire II, second is with the Strike Eagle.

If im not mistaken, Leupold Delta point is not cheap and will likely run you close to eotech prices. My recommendation for a simple 9mm plinker would be a holosun. Small, rather robust and good overall reviews. The vortex sparc2 is another good option, however its a little bigger than the holosun.

^^^^^ What he said.
I would add the Bushnell TRS-25 for consideration only due to cost. But it would not be my first choice for a econo optic.

Holosun 515CU. Have two want ten more. Awesome sight.

Vortex Strikefire 2

Cowitnessing on a CX4 is like having half your sight picture removed. I much prefer being over the irons on the CX4.

Just my opinion of course.

I use the Holosun with the included riser. You can still use the crappy iron sights by looking through the riser.

I use the Bushnell TRS-25 on my Storm and it is perfect in any way!
Also it doesn't add any bulk to this little carbine.
