I'm trying to find the "BEST" scope to use on my Colt 9mm subgun.  It's a Colt upper with the standard fixed 9mm (A1/A2) handle.  The main purpose of the gun is for subgun matches and competition.  So I need a scope with a FAST target acquisition that can be used in bright and normal daytime conditions.  Night use is not necessary!  Basically, I want a scope that shows a red dot or reticle and THAT IS WHERE THE BULLET WILL END UP!  Of the scopes I'm considering are EOTech, Aimpoint, Trijicon and C-More.  Also, what is the best way to mount this to my fixed handle upper ?  Thanks for the info!

You'll not go wrong with an Aimpoint. A forward "goose neck" carry handle mount will put the sight over the handguards like a scout rifle.

I think you shouldgo with the aimpoint, as it is well tested, and you know you are getting a good product.

I'm using aimpoint on my sub gun for competition and have no plans to change .My thinking is if the S--T hits the fan this is the gun i grab and aimpoint has been in the field proven longer than EOtech which i use and wont washout like reflex which i use to use and is built stronger than C-Moore and doc sight which i have also used on other guns.I agree with paul if you have a fixed handle for mount.However they all will speed your time up for competition and you might look at trijicons new sight if round retical is not important.
