Intro to Red Dot Pistol

$100 per person

Red dot sights are on more carry pistols every year, and most people mount one without ever being taught to use it. Presentation is the whole game — if you cannot find the dot, the optic is slowing you down.

What we cover

  • Finding the dot consistently on presentation
  • Zeroing your optic
  • Co-witnessing with iron sights
  • What to do when the dot fails
  • Choosing an optic and a mount that will hold

Bring: your pistol with the optic already mounted, eye and ear protection, and roughly 100 rounds.

Thinking about a red dot but have not bought one? Take the class first. You will choose better afterward.
