Roy I believe I could feel your distane in this video. So, I am including the comment below for our younger audience.
New calibers, gizmos, and gadgets are great. But let's not forget that iron sights and cartridges from early in the last century have been getting the job done long before the critics were born. This was when cartridges and guns were for winning wars and saving lives. Not making money.
All BS aside please keep up the great work with the podcast. Thank you
Roy, have the new red dots improved for people with astigmatism. The last one I purchased was an inexpensive Sig and I still got the old starburst effect. Still useable but aggravating as hell. Do you have any issues?
One other thing you should look at Roy. Look at the color of the dot! I see those glasses. I see that gray hair. Try a GREEN dot! About 90% of people are far better off with a green dot.
The main thing an open emitter has going for it is increased field of view . For competition use , range fun and hunting Cmore sights open emitter options are excellent. Their older railway models even have interchangeable emitters to change your dot size. The railway was also in the sopmod block II options. So it is durable although big. However a quality closed emitter is still better for EDC for many reasons IMHO. Rain being one of them.
Shake to wake is mandatory. Long LONG battery life is critical; thousands of hours plus auto off. Put one on my AR and when I went back it was dead. Oh, and a common battery is critical. I hate having to scour the internet for an expensive replacement. Mostly iron sights seem to fit my requirements.
Yes sir. Splurge on feature quality, not feature quantity. A missing feature can be trained around. A feature you have trained with that suddenly vanishes when things get real leaves you in a pinch.

Where do you put a CR123 in that little rascal? Did you mean a 2032?

Great video full of top notch information ! Thanks for another excellent video Roy .
Hey Roy, have you had a chance to get your hands on a Canik red dot? Would love to get your thoughts on it.

Great points. Also on a defensive pistol make sure you can co-witness with your iron sights. Just in case. Because if it can fail, it will fail
