This quick tip from Brownells explains the significance of Minute of Angle (MOA) for red dot sight sizes on handguns. It clarifies that MOA measures the dot's coverage at 100 yards, with 1 MOA covering roughly one inch. The video advises that larger dots (6-8 MOA) are faster for close-range acquisition, while smaller dots (3 MOA) offer more precision for distance. A 5-6 MOA dot is recommended as a versatile option for concealed carry and general use, balancing speed and precision.
