Red dot, other dot sights developed from Scandinavian moose hunting sights used in lower light on moving target, hunter on stand during a drive or stillhunting in timber. Improvement over the open sights or peep with front blade to be seen to get on target, usually used with both eyes open instead of one eye squint. Single dot on target quicker than luminesence dots on front blad and back sghts- the three dot sights seen on pistols or the AK clones. Police tactical needs sometimes similar to the hunters needs and that was next usage, publicity helped and the restriction in some places for lazer sights meant the red dots were usable legal. 100 meter, low light and maybe moving target snap shot was what it was designed for and it does work mostly. Marlin 336 in .35 for deer and hog hunting used by former neighbor had dot sight usable with eyeglass"s. Tasco(?) has a moderate priced 3x30 longer eye relief but stil short scope originally meant for shotgun slug guns that can be mounted on M16/AR15 patterns- sort of copy of Swartovski (?) similar power that was used for hunting in moderate light conditions and tactical work in Europe- price is less than 1/2. Some people locally using it on .223 for deer (legal cartridge here) in Wisconsin mixed timber and open meadows. There is a variation of that scope with a illuminated dot legal in some states for night hunting varmits- used here for city deer control by DNR contract hunters. Have a politicians car hit a deer in city and then baits, jacklights, lazers and lighted sights and silencers become "legal for control purposes for public safety" RN

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
