Your choice for a pistol scope

[techmike]

Just picked up a Taurus Tracker in .17HMR, came with a scope mounted, but it is a rifle scope. (I don't know why) So, what's your advice for a good pistol scope? I am thinking red dot, and the scope has to have a silver finish to match the pistol.

Thanks,

Several years back I owned a S&W 617 8.375" revolver on which I mounted a Burris 2.5x pistol scope. Don't remember the model # but was very pleased with it. But actually I prefer 1x red dots on handguns unless I'm able to rest the handgun. I found holding this BIG HEAVY revolver still enough to maintain a good sight picture with a 2.5x difficult.

I like a traditional scope in this application

Thanks guys,

Traditional scope - 1

Red Dot            - 1

That was easy, I'll just have to order one of each. ;D

And piggyback one on top the other.  ;D

This is how it ended up, waiting for the thaw to get it out to the range.

Now that's one wicked looking Brazilian boomer. Zero recoil with .17HMR in that massive barrel. Fun, fun, fun.
