Intro to Handgun Optic

Introduction to Handgun Optics

The handgun RDS (red dot sight) has revolutionized handgun shooting. Providing shooters with a tool to improve their shooting by eliminating one of the fundamentals, sight alignment. Most shooters experience an immediate improvement in accuracy, especially at ranges beyond 10 yards. However, the most beneficial thing that the RDS provides the shooter is feedback on what they are doing providing a roadmap for improvement in their fundamental marksmanship.
