DREAD THE DOT?

摘要

When I started working for Lone Wolf Distributors back in 2010, it wasn't that common to see reflex or red-dot sights installed on pistols. They interested me, but not enough for me to experi-ment with them. That changed in 2014 with the introduction of Smith & Wesson's new M&P CORE pistol. It was one of the first to come from the factory with plates to mount a variety of red dots. My interest was piqued—so much so that I wrote an article discussing my testing with red dots versus iron sights. I evaluated a handful of optics against the standard iron sights and found that I was still faster with the latter. However, I wasn't properly trained to master a red dot at the time, so my interest quickly fizzled out.
