Frequently Asked Questions

How do you progress your sight picture with a red dot sight?

The progression involves starting with a 'flash' where the dot appears anywhere in the window, moving to a 'floating' dot that you track, and finally achieving a stable, focused sight picture for accurate shots. This takes practice to become fluid.

What are the rules for the shoot house drill in this video?

The shoot house drill requires engaging targets from various positions. A critical rule is that any missed shot necessitates restarting the entire course of fire from the beginning, emphasizing the need for clean hits.

What is the penalty for missing targets in the initial shooting drill?

In the initial drill using cardboard targets with an 8-inch circular cutout, any shot that lands outside this circle incurs a penalty of +2 seconds added to your total time for that drill.

What equipment is used in this red dot sight training video?

The video features pistols with red dot sights, cardboard targets with 8-inch cutouts, a CED 7000 shot timer, and 3M Peltor hearing protection. Colion Noir also uses a Kydex holster.
