re: Recommend a red dot for a Gen 5 Glock 17

I’ve always said that dot sights allow you to have fast follow-up shots but that initial sight acquisition will never be as fast as irons. Using sights like the Trijicon HDs or similar Ameriglos, the bright front dot is unbelievably easy to acquire. But since eye positioning is important with a red dot, it takes a lot more practice to speed that part of the process up. I imagine with practice it can be nullified but your average Joe or Jane will be quicker on the first shot with irons.
