This video demonstrates the technique of occluded optic shooting, also known as shooting with both eyes open, using a firearm's optic. The method involves closing one eye while looking through the optic with the other, allowing the brain to superimpose the reticle onto the target seen by the open non-dominant eye. This technique, historically used with devices like the Armson OEG, is presented as a viable training tool and an emergency method for engaging targets quickly without a fully functional optic, while also offering the option to open the lens cover for better optical clarity on longer shots.

The Blitz Defense Blink EOTech ARD (Anti-Reflection Device), also known as a kill flash, is a 3D-printed accessory designed to mitigate glare and reflections from an optic's objective lens. While not essential for all users, it can be beneficial for hunters or those operating in situations where minimizing visual signature is critical. The device is made from carbon fiber nylon and costs around $37, placing it in the mid-range for similar products. A potential downside is that it can slightly darken the image viewed through the optic, which may be a concern in low-light conditions or for magnified optics where precise aiming is paramount. However, for users who shoot with both eyes open, this darkening effect is generally not an issue.
