An Impressive Shield On A S&W Shield:

I think that 'RED DOT' optical sights are great on a range gun .. no question about it .. they work for folk that like them.

BUT - while it doesn't matter squat what drain-pipe size tube you mount on a competition target or race-gun .. AND if the light goes out of your life while you are next to the range officer - you'll have an opportunity later to get a spare battery out of your gear-bag and replace it eh.

One shooting mate fits "optics" to just about everything that he owns - which goes some way to explain that odd bulge in his track pants - but he does hit very small groups on very small targets way down range while I'm hammering away "open sighted" at a big target card at around 7 meters (twenty-three feet).

Things may be changing: - I just watched this impressive video from Sootch00 ..

That 'Shield' sight is very interesting .. almost practical looking .. & so it seems is that 4 inch S&W M&P Shield pistol..

I'd just about consider fitting something as low and compact as that onto my target shooting Glock 19X if the gubbings were available - but this outfit is actually ENGLISH made and their stuff will certainly be a bit pricey down here in godz own.

Warning: While their sights may be the gear .. their SITE is awful slow & I ran out of patience with it twice:  https://www.shieldpsd.com/

.. So sometimes things can get better and there is a little progress:
