The Everyman's Guide to Red Dot Optics

Send us a text! This is our first installment of a series we'll be returning to periodically throughout the year that we're calling simply "The Tactical Series". In this one we walk through the "Why" and the "What" of the general classification of weapons optics known as "Red Dots" as well as some our personal preferences for when and how we would apply these different options. Hang around later as we take these optics out on the range to do some testing and work through additional optic specifications.
