    I bought mine from the Riton Optics site. If you google them, you will find retailers. Many seem to be sold out.

    I run a Holosun 507C on my pistol slide. It slams back and forward with each shot with the slide, if that doesn't kill it nothing you are likely to do on a rifle will make it loose zero or stop working.
    You could probably go to one of the cheaper version but that style of red dot weighs nothing and super robust. Good choice for a close up bush gun.

    As an aside, I am a member of an African hunting forum similar to this one.
    The amount of dangerous game rifles including doubles (sacrilege you say) that have these fitted is quite staggering.
    They are extremely popular for that quick shot.
    You would have to say that if it's the best sight available on the likes of a race pistol that can be shot as fast as you acquire the target, then that would lend itself to ery short time frames on animals that can squash and or eat you.
    And obviously if they fail they can be removed and straight back to the irons.

    I've been testing at 510c on my SBL and giving it plenty. It's deffinately proved that holosun is up there with the best.
