red dot sight :D

i bought a Millett red dot yesterday morning from two senior citizen racists running a weapon shop out of a converted shed in one of their backyards. they installed it for me and graciously reinstalled a scope mount off one of their .22's to supplant my missing one. welcome to naath caa'lina!

im going to print some targets and go try to scope this in for real today

(sight picture is brightness setting 4, out of 0..11)

yes, 0 is off and then I guess there are 11 brightness settings, 1 through 11

i sighted it this morning, ate lunch with the girlie before she went back to work, then i reloaded mags and went back out :carl: . it's sighted pretty durn good but I do definitely notice it needs to be shot at around the same distance it was sighted at- probably because the angles of trajectory and of dot projection need to intersect at one point, and thus only one ideal distance away can be fully accurate

Yes that is how sights typically work :)

Sighted gun on a tripod... near a window with blinds... :tinfoil:

That looks like it's going to be a lot of fun, StrikeAthius! :D
