What is a red dot sight?
A red dot sight is a type of aiming device on a pistol or rifle. Other types of aiming devices are Scopes, Lasers, and Iron (or Fixed) sights. A red dot sight gives the shooter a small window through which they look down range at a target. Most Red Dot Sights do not offer a magnification (Although some do) of the shooter’s view like most scopes do. The cool thing about a red dot sight is that the red dot is not always in the center of the window, like a scope’s reticle which is always in the center of the shooter’s view. Therefore, the shooter does not need to have the sights, barrel and eyes in a perfect line. Depending on the alignment and position of the weapon, the red dot moves around in the window and is always (theoretically) showing where the shot is going to impact. The Red Dot sight does allow for fast target acquisition, but it does tend to get in the way of traditional aiming technique teachings.
Red dot sights are very popular, and many are available with green dots, or both red and green colors, depending on the shooter’s preference.
As mentioned above most Red Dot sights are 1x power, meaning looking through them has no magnification. Some do offer magnification of 2x, 3x, and I have tried some that are even 5x. Compare that to a scope that offers from 1x to 60x magnification. There are applications where every type of sight excels.
The red dot scope is a type of non-magnifying reflector sight that uses an LED (light-emitting diode) to illuminate a red dot in the eyepiece. The user looks through the sight, aligning the red dot with the target, and the red dot appears superimposed over the target. This allows the user to shoot without having to align the sights with the target, as is necessary with iron sights.
There are two main types of red dot sights: those with infinite eye relief and those with fixed eye relief. The infinite eye relief sights can be placed anywhere on the firearm and do not require the user to align their eye with the sight. These are often used on pistols and shotguns. The fixed eye relief sights must be placed in a specific location on the firearm in order to be used correctly, and are often found on rifles.
The red dot sight is not affected by parallax error, as the red dot remains in the same position in the sight regardless of where the user's eye is positioned. This makes them much more accurate than iron sights, which can be difficult to use accurately.
Red dot sights are powered by batteries, and the battery life will vary depending on the model. Some red dot sights will automatically turn off after a period of time to conserve battery power, while others will remain on until turned off by the user.
The red dot sight is a relatively new invention and has only been around for a few decades. However, it has quickly become a popular option for shooters of all levels of experience.
How to Choose Between an Open-Sight Red Dot and a Tube Scope Red Dot?
When you are looking for a red dot sight, there are two main types that you will find on the market: open-sight red dots and tube scope red dots. So, how do you choose between the two?
The main difference between the two types of red dots is the size of the dot. Open-sight red dots have a large dot size, while tube scope red dots have a smaller dot size. The large dot size of open-sight red dots makes them ideal for close-range shooting, while the smaller dot size of tube scope red dots makes them better for long-range shooting.
Another difference between the two types of red dots is the field of view. Open-sight red dots have a wider field of view, while tube scope red dots have a narrower field of view. This means that open-sight red dots are better for target acquisition, while tube scope red dots are better for target tracking.
Finally, open-sight red dots are typically less expensive than tube scope red dots.
