Re: Burris Promotion - FastFire 3 with purchase of AR-332 or AR-536

My Fastfire 3 just arrived. I checked the website and it still doesn't show that it had shipped.

I'll give a field report when I finally get to shoot it. I need to find batteries for my Aimpoint Comp ML that I haven't shot in years. I'd like to compare them out to 300 yds.

Charles - did you ever get the AR-322 out to the range for sight in?
Well . . . no. :oops: That's why I want the Fastfire III. I want it to sit in the gun room and keep the AR-332 company. Maybe after the session is over.

Mine still hasn't shipped. Perhaps they will send it to be for this Christmas!

No, but I'm not surprised. I expect a 4 week minimum from valid submission, more likely 6-7. Logging in to check ( http://www.rebateinquiryonline.com/ ), it shows mine received 12-23.
I checked that and it shows no records :banghead:
The first time I checked I entered by home phone instead of my cell phone. I got the information when I used the correct phone number. I wasn't sure about the dealer either, but I guessed right.

Thanks for the link to verify a registration. Mine shows to have been submitted on Dec. 23rd also. That's interesting.

No and I'm a little irritated.

Re: Burris Promotion - FastFire 3 with purchase of AR-332 or AR-536

My AR-332 came today and it looks good. The optics are better than I'd expect for this price, but Burris does seem to have that reputation. I like both the green and red illumination, but off/black should work fine also. The sight seems to be very well built.

As someone already posted above, the freebie is the 3 MOA dot.
I was in the same situation. I don't need either one, but it's too good of a deal to pass up. Heck, now I'll have to buy two more AR's.

I think WalMart owns Jet.com. I should have checked Walmart first.

Re: Burris Promotion - FastFire 3 with purchase of AR-332 or AR-536

Thanks for posting this great deal. I just ordered the AR-332 on Jet.com, but the code holiday20 was not valid. I then tried "Welcome15" and the scope wasn't eligible for this 15% discount. Too bad, that would have been another $40 off. At $270 plus a free Fastfire III, it's still a bargain.

When it arrives and I order the free Fastfire III, do you know if I can select the 3 MOA or 8 MOA, or will it be whatever they decide to ship?
