Reflex, Dot & Aim Point
We have many questions come in daily asking about these sights and what they do so we thought we would put up a simple Q and A for all of our customers.
Q: What is a reflex sight?
A: A reflex sight is a type of optic that projects a simple dot or reticle usually on a pane of glass. They are an open optic allowing you to use both eyes freely without having to look through a tube or line up a rear and front sight on your rifle. The biggest pluses to these optics are the ability to allow you to have %100 field of view in front of you while having little to no obstruction in your way.
Q: What is a dot sight?
A: A dot sight is a marksman's sight. Using no projection method or any form of extra tech it allows you to adjust windage and elevation with ease. They are meant to line up with your front iron sight to allow you to have a precise pinpoint view, with one eye open, of your target.
Q: What is an aim Point?
A: An aim Point is much like a reflex sight using a light to project a dot or reticle on a pane of glass inside of a tube rather than in an open area, it is mainly used for one eye use. These are a lot more durable because they can take shocks and drops much better than reflex can because of the tube construction; this may hinder the use of both eyes open allowing you to get a 100% field of view. These are excellent for night and allow it so you don't have iron sights in your way when you are aiming.
