No , I just responded to non-germane snark in kind is all .Maybe, and for reference, I learned on iron sights as well.
I was being mostly sarcastic in my initial response as I try to be proficient with both modes of optics.
Y'all are wound tight and it's just Weds...
Holosun ACSS VULCAN....I'd like to try a RDS, but I just don't know what brand.
Seems like a great excuse to buy a new pistol set up optics ready cut
My experience has been RDS are not going to improve slow fire accuracy by much. The advantage comes during fast target transitions.I am an old bullseye shooter. I drove to Houston and back last weekend in my manual transmission Jeep. In good light, I don't find much difference in benchrest accuracy between my RDS and iron sighted target .22s. On the other hand, I didn't learn to shoot a 1911 well by hand until I put an RDS on one so I could see what was happening when I pressed the trigger during dry fire.
reminded me of an old hush puppy from SE asiaLaser for small critters is handy with can. Dot on, snap trigger. Night ops.View attachment 500996
cataract ?Hell, it's at the point I need the optic, getting my target eye whittled on in December. Gotten to the point I can see the sights or the target. All my scopes look like they have leaks in the tubes and crap got in em. Unless the optic is green it looks like a Nike swoop. I should have bought that extended warranty!
Yep, got the right eye fixed 2 years ago. Now time for the left.cataract ?
my right eye was worked on 40 years ago but its pretty mush useless now days , left one is starting to go but i have time so they sayYep, got the right eye fixed 2 years ago. Now time for the left.
old fudd here and a center mass fan unless the head is the only thing unarmored and hittable lolIt depends. I have guns that only have a groove on the slide and these adequate and mandatory for what their intended purpose. A contact shot or at someone's face at bad breath distances does not require sights. Also use from a pocket, optics as they are now is not a good fit for me.
Even without sights using meat on the metal I can hit a pepper popper at 7 yards in its head area. With a .380 the only hits to take the heavy steel target were multiple hits in the head area since it was calibrated for 9s and 45s.
Due to my eyes for aimed fire i prefer the holosum green dots sights. When I was younger it was not mandatory, but now it is. Most of the bullseye pistol shooters that I have known use red dots or other optics. Even with my cataracts the dots are better. Iron sights for precision work even if your eyes are good can give variable results in accordance to lighting conditions. The light being stronger on one side of the front sight versus the other side can alter where you are actually aiming your gun.
Guns below are not suitable for an optic. By the way the baby browning if you use the rudimentary sights is an accurate gun. You can hit the forehead of a human at 50' with young eyes. True it might bounce off if there is an angle.
