Re: Don Edwards / Greenline Tactical Red Dot Pistol - Oct 26-27, Wallingford, CT
Why train red dot pistol?
Red dot sights give the shooter a more natural way to aim a pistol
RDS are faster on target than iron sights
RDS help improve law enforcement qualification/re-qual scores significantly, some reported as much as 25%
RDS give LEO's who don't have a carbine immediately in reach a viable option on an active shooter
RDS are superior to iron sights at night
RDS are superior to irons on moving targets
RDS can assist those with less than perfect vision.
SOCOM has quietly been using them.
RDS have taken the market by storm.
