A Range Officer is a very good choice for a starter Bullseye gun, and is a bargain for the price. At least that's what Brian Zins told me when I shot next to him and showed him mine.
Zins uses an Aimpoint Micro red dot with custom made front and rear shields, with a mount so solid he grabs the red dot to rack the slide. Of course, a setup like that adds almost as much cost as the gun itself.
I have a good number of 900 matches behind me and my Range Officer (iron sights) has never had any kind of failure. On one occasion I put 29 of 30 in the black at 50 yards with it.
