OG.
Crazy to watch Jerry Barnhart articulate the benefits of a pistol red dot and single plane aiming in 1997, over 25 years ago. Given some of the ignorance and fudd lore that still persist I'm sure he got a lot of hate.  Bushnell HoloSight - 1997 |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By EamonnWright: That's what I was taught over my entire 25+ year LE career. I watched two videos of two entire training courses taught by Ben Stoeger and Joel Park, and they teach target focus for irons as well as red dots. I've been practicing using their methods, and I've already had noticeable improvement. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By EamonnWright: Originally Posted By TW200: Front sight focus with irons. Target focus with red dot. You gots it backwards Baconfat Before I really got into shooting and researching I learned to shoot semi autos with basic info and then hitting the range. I shot iron sights with target focus for quite a while. Especially if you have a red or green/yellow front sight. Now if I want to practice a tight group Ill use front sight focus but for rapid fire, short distance (10yds or less) I think target focus is adequate for self defense shooting if you have the basics down |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CapsFan: So far, I'm liking the circle dot and the auto brightness works pretty well. I had to set my auto adjust on the + setting. Worked great everywhere except in really dark conditions. I found my weaponlight wouldn't cause it to bump up were I needed it to be. The + setting works great. Its a little brighter than my preference for everything else, but Im weird in that I always preferred mine slightly dimmer than most people. The + setting will likely be perfect for most. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By CapsFan: So far, I'm liking the circle dot and the auto brightness works pretty well. Excellent. I went with the old RMR on this one due to size and price. My first dot and didn’t want any concealment hurdles to compound my learning curve. Gonna buy a P as a nightstand gun in the Spring and I’ll FO on one of the new offerings then. |

RMRs are dropping in prices with the release of the enclosed emitters. Holosuns are GTG! No issues with mine, aside from origin of manufacturer. Got the itch for a Blue label G26.5, since I have a lot of OEM + bases plates. Might have to wait as I purchased the XMacros.

Got the CHPWS plate in for the 507k. I like my FCD plate setup better on the 19, so I’ll eventually go with another of those at some point in the future. Still, this one mounted up just fine and should work until I’m ready to swap it out.

Took my Glock 20.5 MOS 10MM large frame with Holosun SCS to the range for the first time yesterday. Sighted it in and took it over to the 50 yard, two one foot steel plates. The recoil took some getting used to. lol
Sun was right in my eyes. 50 yards, two one foot steel plates. Far dirt bank. Steel plates on either side of the large rectangular target.  |

Shot show seemed kinda meh from a RDS standpoint. I guess that's to be expected somewhat as the tech seems very mature from a durability and battery life standpoint.
The thermal / red dot fusion from Holosun seems neat though. |

Could mean a trend in the future. Thermal overlays or completely thermal optics becoming somewhat uncommon, but available on pistol dots or in a small form factor like Eotech-sized for reasonable prices. |

I have a serious Glock 19.5 MOS addiction.
 With the factory gen 5 Glock match barrel you can shoot 50 yards easily.Glock grip angle reduces recoil and allows you to shoot a little faster. 1.Trijicon SRO 2.Holosun SCS 3.Trijicon RMRcc  |
