    Default Meprolight R4E Optimized Duty Sight

    Any good?

    That rear sight must be strong if you can use it to wrack the slide.

    The Elites don't fear the tall nails, government possesses both the will and the means to crush those folks. What the Elites do fear (or should fear) are the quiet men and women, with low profiles, hard hearts, long memories, and detailed target folders for action as they choose.

    Not really - All my fighting gun sights have a squared off front for that kind of use. Real useful if you having to fight with one hand.

    Seems a bit "busy" for a handgun sight. In nearly any case that a weapon "has" to be used, then it's gonna be quick. With all that going on in a set of pistol sights, I don't truly see how it would be beneficial.

    Now, to punch paper, the added possibilities for accuracy could make sense.

    I thought it was real busy as well. I am plenty precise at night with three dots, or a two dot "8" set up.

    I noticed "The Mako Group" at the beginning of the video. If that's the same company that makes all the cheap, Chinese knock-offs like Tapco does, then I wish them luck with these things. Granted, I'm sure they'll sell, but Meprolight sucks for letting them use their vials.
