Red dots are a whole lot harder to master than iron sites are. When you’re talking about somebody that does not use a pistol and it’s for breaking purpose is for self-defense, most personnel pick it up in point shoot. I’ve seen a lot and I’ve instructed a lot of personnel with red dot optic’s that have no idea how do use them the stats why they’re coming to a class in order to learn how to use them.
Without the proper fundamentals and repetition having a red dot optic on a firearm is absolutely not helpful until you learn how to apply everything with that optic. You don’t just pick up a firearm put the Dot on the target and squeeze the trigger like a lot of folks think. Presentation presentation presentation presentation, tons of repetition and familiarization is how you get used to and use a red dot optic.
It takes some getting used to..
Most people can use iron sights and can hit at least a man-size target somewhere in the body region. Which in a self-defense situation your probability of incapacitation greatly increases as the perpetrator may not be able to engage after a body shot. Once that body shot is completed and your sites are trained on that Purp you are able to conduct a threat assessment to ensure that he is not gonna be able to harm you and then call 911 or if he’s still a combatant you’re able to finish what you’re doing
OK fellas and Fellers... I’m tapping out...
