The Evolution of Pistol Sights Over the Decades: Gun Guys Ep. 46 with Bill Wilson and Ken Hackathorn
From the simplest iron notch-and-post open sights, to the most sophisticated red dot optics available on the market today, Bill and Ken discuss how the handgun industry has evolved over the years to meet new challenges and applications by constantly innovating the way we acquire an accurate point of impact. Bill and Ken also talk about the numerous advantages (and a few important disadvantages) of such systems as the Aimpoint ACRO and the Trijicon RMR.
