Seems to me like a lot of fancy words to say "stay threat focused while placing the dot where you need the bullet impact". Firearms instructor and combat vet of 22 years.
Somehow this answered exactly what I was looking for. I'm a black sheep here, even though I wasn't expecting this, I enjoyed it even though it could be cut in half. The title should be different though. "The Survival Benefits Of Red Dot VS. Iron Sights - Fight Or Flight Preparation For Newbies Episode 1" lol
Great presentation.. I enjoyed the video very much and the repeated emphasis on key points. Can’t wait to shoot my new edc x9 with SRO for the first time tomorrow morning.. Thank you.. Randy
Buck, you keep saying the same thing over and over. And the way you are wording things can throw off an inexperience shooter. To sum up what you were trying to say is this. Practice with your red dot and get it down to muscle memory, so that you don’t have to go looking for the red dot all the time. It’s that simple! All that talk about your biology made me think I was in a science class . 😢
You guys should add some useful info to this clip. Would love to know what’s new on this compared to the last model. Would also love to know why the mount is more expensive than the glass, and why your mounts are so huge? Love your products but can’t understand why Scalarworks is able to shave so much size and weight to accomplish the same thing.
Granted, the language could have been a little less esoteric and stilted, but after viewing this video for the third time, as a newbie to Red Dots, I came away with an epiphany when it came to shooting with my Red Dot Sight. Buck's presentation is less of a "how to manual" and more of (and I hate to use these words) a philosophical "school of taught" approach to shooting with a Red Dot Sight. I would suggest everyone viewing Buck's video at least twice.
I love my Acro P-2. But, one tip for anyone thinking of buying one: The battery cover is plastic and someone at Aimpoint screwed it on so tight that the tool that comes with the red dot to remove it just tears it up. Once it's off, it is very difficult to reinstall without causing the o-ring to bulge out. I recommend just buying the aluminum battery cap that Aimpoint sells on their site. That aluminum cap comes with an o-ring installed. Using a slight dab of dilectric grease on the cap threads ensures that it goes on easily, is water tight, and the o-ring doesn't get damaged. The overly tight plastic cap is a common complaint with the P-2. Aimpoint should address it.
Thanks for that info. I was considering buying 2 for my beretta shotguns. Idk now bcuz at those prices the plastic battery covers are unacceptable. And they must know that's why they (sell) the better quality ones separately. No thanks.
I went on their website to compare the two, so far the only differences I see is that it's .6 oz lighter, can be submerged to 80 feet instead of 2 feet, 1 extra degree field of view (7 vs 6), and can withstand more extreme temperatures (-50.8 F to 159.8 F vs -31.0 F to 131.0 F). So while it's better, it so far doesn't feel like something you'd throw away your old 3X-C for unless you were swimming with your gun.
@@trevorgin835I did see that on Aimpoint’s description the 3XC is commercial grade and the 3XP is professional grade. That may mean it may be a more rugged being able to take harsher recoil. I may test it on my Scar 17 which is known to kill optics and electronics. I’ve got two 3XCs one on my Scar 16 with a MP5s rds and the other on my Arsenal Sam7r-61 AK 47 with a T2 and both on Unity FTC mounts.
Oh just what I needed an $800 red dot for a fudd sporting gun. Why hype this up? Noone is buying this. Back to bed now cant believe i got up early for this. 😴
