Votatu PMD504 RMR Pistol Red Dot Sight Review & Shoot Multi Reticle

This review covers the Olight XR RMR-style red dot sight, highlighting its unique multi-reticle system with switchable 2 MOA and 6 MOA dots, and a 32 MOA ring. The optic features an RMR footprint, integrated backup sights, and a novel external battery pack for recharging. The reviewer demonstrates its mounting on a pistol slide, discusses its performance with astigmatism, and provides a range session showing the zeroing process.

This guide covers the installation and basic use of the Osight SE green dot optic, as demonstrated by an experienced instructor. It highlights the optic's RMSc footprint, user-replaceable battery, and versatile reticle options (2 MOA dot, 32 MOA circle, or combination). The video also compares the green and red reticle variants, noting their identical functionality aside from color.

This guide details the installation and a rigorous durability test of the Gowutar EP-20 enclosed red/green dot sight, featuring an ACRO footprint. The video demonstrates its mounting system, shake-awake technology, and impressive resilience through a 'torture test' involving impacts on a car hood, with the optic maintaining zero throughout. Instruction is provided by an experienced individual knowledgeable in optic footprints and materials.

This review of the Gowutar GP-9 optic highlights its 6 MOA red dot, which is particularly beneficial for individuals with astigmatism, often appearing crisp and round. The optic features a large window, beneficial for rapid fire and recoil management, and includes built-in rear sights for backup. The video demonstrates the zeroing process at close range and discusses the practical application of the 6 MOA dot's size at various distances.

This video provides an expert review and durability test of the GOWUTAR GP-V red dot sight, designed for Doctor and Noblex footprints. The instructor, demonstrating experienced authority, conducts rigorous beat-down tests involving impacts and slide racking to assess the optic's ability to hold zero. The review highlights its affordable price point, robust construction with 7075 T6 aluminum, IPX7 waterproofing, and clear sight picture with good co-witness capability.

This guide details the installation and initial use of an RMR footprint red dot sight, specifically the AT3 Tactical model, on platforms like the Glock 19 and Glock 17. It emphasizes the versatility of mounting on both handguns and rifles as a secondary optic. The video highlights the importance of the RMR footprint for compatibility and demonstrates practical application in a shooting range environment.

This video from Buckeye Ballistics provides a practical, albeit unconventional, comparison of five common pistol calibers (.22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP) by shooting watermelons. The expert demonstrates varying levels of terminal performance, from the .22LR's significant splitting to the .45 ACP's complete watermelon fragmentation, highlighting the differences in hydraulic shock and expansion. The test utilizes specific hollow-point ammunition, including Speer Gold Dot, Aguila Super Maximum, and Underwood XTP, showcasing their effects.

This video provides a practical, safety-conscious comparison of common pistol calibers (.22LR, .380 ACP, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP) against concrete blocks. The host, demonstrating high authority and expertise, details the testing methodology and results, emphasizing the risks of ricochet. None of the tested pistol calibers fully penetrated the concrete block's second wall, suggesting their limitations for certain penetration scenarios.

This review of the Taurus TX22 .22 LR pistol details its features, including a 16+1 capacity and excellent trigger. While initial testing with CCI Mini-Mags was flawless, subsequent tests with various ammunition types revealed cycling issues and culminated in a catastrophic failure. The failure was attributed to a squib load followed by a second shot, causing a barrel bulge and ruptured casing, highlighting potential ammunition inconsistencies. The review provides a detailed look at disassembly and damage assessment.

This video from Buckeye Ballistics provides an experimental comparison of three popular rimfire calibers: .22LR, .22WMR, and .17HMR, using cantaloupes as ballistic mediums. The host, an experienced shooter, demonstrates the distinct terminal ballistics of each round, highlighting how bullet construction and velocity affect target interaction. The comparison offers practical insights into the performance differences between these rimfire cartridges on soft tissue simulants.
