Looking to try out a red dot on a pistol for the first time. I won’t buy Chinese optics, but it seems like the only real options for the standard footprint are Holosun. Anybody have some good recommendations for a different company’s?

In a brief, non-comprehensive search it appears that 100% (design, components and assembly) American-made (or country other than China) may be a tall order. I took a look at the Leupold DeltaPoints (there are different models), but it only says "'designed, machined and assembled' in the US." It does not specify the origin of the components. Burris (FastFire, various models) does not appear to show any country of origin at all.

It doesn’t have to be American made, just not Chinese. Completely fine with European or Taiwanese.
