you and i have had enough interactions that I can guess pretty well where you stand on issues like this

but yeah, put whatever sights on your gun that keep you from killing things that don't need killing

Relent, who makes a decent red dot I could put on the Mark IV? Not spending RMR money on a plinker.

On another note, finally started Red Dead 2 last night, hnnnnnnggggg.

I'm not Relent, but a good friend of mine has had great luck with a Fast Fire 3 on several different guns

Venom, Viper, or Fastfire III would all be plenty durable for that use.

Venom most likely simply because my dealer cost is insanely cheap on one. lol
Or did you mean the gun? If so, not yet. About to make payment to CGW for like $400 for all my SP-01 Tac work so I gotta recoup a few gun bucks before buying. Lmao

I don't really have any particular one in mind. Any of the 22/45 Lite models is fine with me. I know they all have different colors based on the way it's lightened, etc.

Took the 365 straight out of the box and put 110 rounds through it yesterday before my hands froze off

Wolf bare steel, Brown Bear lacquered steel, brass, and aluminum cased, as well as a mag of Ranger T' 147's and it functioned flawlessly

I know that's not really that many rounds but at least its off to a good start

Black rear with fiber optic front goes on every single pistol I own that doesn't have an optic on it.
And those recommendations seem to come along with the statement that you will have and use a weapon mounted light or hand held flashlight...

People defended themselves at night before semi autos but I don't see us all talking about our carry revolvers...times change and tech improves.

Good, that's how the fiber optic is supposed to be illuminated. Most people don't go to the trouble of mounting a light on every gun and only buying carry holsters that work with the light mounted because, well, it's extra work and can be limiting on holsters and carry position

Another reason why I wanted to give the X300 U-A a try. I like the idea of the quick detach system so it can be quickly put on any gun if you ever wanted to.

Indeed, but it doesn't mean that new tech is the "only" way

It's about time lights were really quick and easy to move. Pistol lights, anyway. I don't see this as an issue for most people when it comes to rifles. Couldn't hurt though

It often means the new tech is objectively superior. As is the case with modern highly reliable semi autos that holds 2-3x the ammo of a revolver. Why did you put the word only in quotes? What are you quoting?

Predator 2 was on last night, and for some reason I watched it. It was made in 1990, three years after the first one, but it was set in 1997. They wanted it to seem futuristic so they put these ridiculous lights and lasers on every cop's handgun. Did not age well. Movie sucked too. Screenwriters said they wanted to move it from the jungle to the 'urban jungle' so they had this Predator hunting drug dealers in L.A. lol. Also each cop pointed a gun directly at another cop every time they breached a room or had a shootout with drug dealers.

Meant a gun model, but yeah. I’d probably go with the Venom in your situation as well.

Think Cobra was the first movie I saw with a "laser sight" on a weapon.



Then there was Tango and Cash....

For some reason I always thought lasers would catch on more than lights, but the opposite happened. I still think about getting a DBAL or a TLR-2 HLG for the home defense 10.5" AR. Seems like it would be useful at night not having to aim in that situation.

I suspect irons are probably significantly faster than an actual laser would be as far as acquisition. Especially in daylight. Lol @ trying to find a laser on a bright summer day at 25 yards.

Same cannot be said with a red dot. If you put the time in, you will absolutely shoot faster and more accurately with a red dot over irons. Period.
