Family, your thoughts on green dots? Do you find them better to get on target versus red dot?

I only own red dots but I'm seeing others online that like green dots.

I own a "Vortex Optics Spitfire 3X Prism" scope for my 300BK, and it has a red/green option. I love the green option better. I can just see the green better, but it could just be my preference, too.

It's an older scope, but I really like the reticle.

All of my handguns and my 300 Blackout AR pistol have green dots. I have an astigmatism so red dots tend to have starburst effects. Plus my eyes catch green much faster as well so they work better for me. The only optic I have that isn't green is the LPVO on my 5.56 AR and that's cuz Vortex doesn't make a LPVO that has a green illumination

Same here with the astigmatism... Red dots have a sideways tear drop shape for me.
 
Those cases are filled to the brim with powder. Either that powder is weak, thereby keeping the pressure down. Or, that shit is "+P+" which would make me nervous shooting something that hot.

It didn't look like they left any room for the bullets in those casings. All powder.

I agree, It looks like there's no kind of quality control going on .

I have 2 Holosun optics a green dot on a Hellcat pro and a red on a shield plus my eyes seem to pick up the green a tad quicker.

Whats crazy I havent taken any of my 19/19x to the shooting range that much in this year.
For my 9mm, mostly Its's been my 43x, Hellcat, FN 509


:rolleyes:
As for, if I own a switch or not, for my 19/19x. I plead the 5th.
:lol:

I have the OG hellcat, the kick is insane on it. I like it because its real easy to conceal, but shooting I'm still on the fence about it. Which one you have?
 
Anyone familiar with the Kimber Micro 9 ESV? Looking to get this bundle for my lil Xmas gift to myself. Going to sell my Springfield XD-M Elite 9mm 4.5". Its my dust collector.

I have a Taurus G3C that's my edc, but want something smaller. I've seen online some complain that the Kimber can at times jam on certain rounds. But many say you have to clean and heavily oil it when you first get it, along with breaking it in.

I also just like the look of it, with the slits and the whole copper barrel. But not a fan of it being 7+1.
