I put the Warne RAMP mount on mine, thinking I would run irons at an offset. I still think it's a plausible idea, but haven't done it yet. Anyway, they are worth checking out...

I took the C-More and the Trijicon 1-4 to the range yesterday. The C-More was lighter, and a better fit for a house gun, but the 1-4 was almost as fast, and at 1X, easy to acquire and hit the targets.

I like both. The 1-4 is on the truck gun now, the C-more back on the house gun.

I think what most are saying is that it's a training issue to look through the tube of the Aimpoint, with both eyes open. The tubular design of the Aimpoint makes the view darker than the surrounding environment.

The brain is trained from birth to default to the "better" view, which is usually the one not looking through the Aimpoint. You overcome it with use, but most know don't "the why" it's an issue when you first use one.

If they'd close the front cover and run em for awhile, they might start to see why a red dot works.

my house gun is a Springfield 1911 A1, optimized by their custom shop for reliability. I have night sights, and a Surefire X300 mounted.
My house AR is a Spikes Tactical with an EOtech mounted. I am ordering a mount, to attach a Surefire G2ZX light.
I like having a white light on a HD weapon.

Practice with both the pistol and carbine, with the weapon light, and without, are a constant part of my agenda.

Which is an excellent way to to train with it.

think the guys with issues are having a hard time mentally. Not physically. Also, I see a lot of guys new to red dots still closing one eye.
