Both, cause my eyes aren't that great.I'm curious to the public view, which do you prefer and why optics red dot or magnification or trusty iron. I use irons as my current go to is a A2 with a permanent carry handle. My reasoning and comfort is night or day my sights are there and not easily nocked off. At the range my buddies red dot was useless BC the battery died and even cowitness buis are not as clear in my experience. I see the beauty of the red dot as I used his with multiple rapid hits out to 100yds. I'm not asking what's better because that depends on who you are, I'm just curious who uses what and why. I will always use irons or a scope a dot to me is irons that will fail, but that's me.
