It’s just simple trying to make you think

This instructor makes it look so easy! Getting used to a red dot on a pistol takes time, I appreciate this instructor's patience and teaching manner.

I was in the process of signing up for Sig Saur Academy just before the lock down. Got the required extra background check, made hotel reservations etc. Then lockdown happened. I will be trying again soon. Glad I got to see this.

Just mounted first Red Dot on my HK VP9. So glad to find this video with so much great information. This instructor is great at explaining things and has answered a lot of questions I had to start zeroing and using my red dot.

Never would have thought to try this! Grew up a long distance rifle shooter so always been a stickler about sight picture and holding just right on target and adjusting my hold for distance. Definitely going to try this next range day, thanks Colion

Like you Colion, I have been reluctant to transition to red dots on pistols. This video shows the merit in them along with expert level training. Thank you to SIG and to you!

This just crossed my feed today. Thank you for making this video. I recently bought a red-dot and a comprehensive examination of their application was sorely needed.

So timely...my wife and I just updated our mature eyes with Holosun 507Cs and there were multiple nuggets in this video offering for training with them. You have a strong inner self, as your persona allows you to shed vanity and let us learn with you. Oh, I will share something I discovered...in getting comfortable with using a red dot, I find that if I use more gripping pressure with my two lower fingers ( i.e.#4 & #5 pinky ) it pulls the red dot down right over my front sight. Making your good "better" and your better "best". Somewhere between ignorance & arrogance.

I wish gun companies would get together with red dot companies and say "ok, lets make all red-dots fit all new guns made". Why so many different mounting systems ?

Great vid. Really helpful in contextualizing "negatives" that are often overblown.

Came back to rewatch this. Going to get a Red Dot for my new Mark IV Lite. I know it has very little recoil but I was more concerned about the parallax and glad to know the dot doesnt have to be perfectly centered. Just trying to go plink and have some fun.

Good info and well-presented. I don't recall seeing anything about the POI change at 25 yards when the zero is at 15 yards, which would have been useful info. Hope to see more like this.

Only been shooting pistol red dot for like 8 months, and only a hair over 2k rounds. But what I can say is it makes it a lot easier to stretch your range out, speed at distances past like 15 yards are way better, also the biggest thing is practice drawing so you reduce inconsistency in the draw stroke. The learning curve is sharp so it will not offer advantages at first but the curve isn’t hard to overcome where it starts really helping. By sharp I mean it will be hard at first but once you start doing well you will improve fast.

I really appreciate this video. I’m about to buy a red dot for my pistol and this was really informative in that preparation. I’ll be doing exactly this when I take it to the range.

I have a red dot on my 22charger but now have the Romeo Zero on my Glock17...this has been a very informnative video on dot placement in the window! Thanks guys for the gouge!!!

James R Squyres dude you not use a red dot in the air force? If you have you should know that they don’t care where the dot is after you zero. I mean you are not going to be a sniper on cod with it, but you will hit the target. Red dots are amazing and more useful than just being a dot in instead of a post.

@@HoodedxFreak sure. The demonstration was showing that once you have the red dot zeroed in the center of your optic that you'll hit the target where the dot is shown regardless of where that is within the optic relative to your sight picture. So if the dot is at the top of your glass you'll still hit roughly on that dot. It's apparently not like iron sights where you have to line up multiple points for accuracy

I have Red Dots on some of my handguns & still use irons on some. Not all of them are cut for optics & I don't want to deal with getting optics cuts & buying optics for every single one. So don't feel like you have to convert everything you own. One thing I have learned is you don't have to buy some $500 optic to get a high quality product. Riton is an optic company that has really impressed me. Even the relatively cheap Sig Romeo Zero has proven to be effective for me. Holosuns are almost always a good bet, but prices on those have started to climb.

I just installed a red dot on my Sig. This video is very informative and helpful. Thanks
