On my AR, I have a Fiber-Optic/Tritium reflex sight, and I’m starting to become interested in the same thing for a pistol, but I’m not finding any. Do they make these for pistols? If I have to turn it on before I use it, I’m just going to stick with my iron sights.
I am assuming you have a Trijicon Sight on your AR, or at least one that is similar to that.
For pistols, Trijicon is the only maker that I know of that makes one, and even that is dual illuminated (uses a battery).
As for the battery in the red dots, I have heard that they last darn near a year if on all the time. So, people I know just leave it on and change the battery at a set interval. Not sure about all that second hand, and now third hand information. I don’t use one, yet.
Can you clarify? Like what make/model is on your AR.
When you say a reflex sight I think of something like a Trijicon RMR or Leopold Deltapoint Pro. Fiber-optic makes me think of an ACOG. And Tritium is usually for iron sights… I’m not aware of anything that has all 3…
