Anyone tried these? My wife wen't to school with the guy that designed them.

Ugly... but it they work, who cares.

Why put the center dot up high? Just make a military style two dot with dots on the side too, then it wouldn't have that cage. It looks huge

Conventional mount three dot system works fine for me and has a lower profile.

I don't see any advantage.

Looks like the sights of my PMR30 with an extra hi viz @ 12 oclock & a big cage contraption. Not sure why the 12 oclock sight is there. They seem similar in theory to a combat sight.

To me it seems like triangular fiber optics on the rear with the middle one on the bottom and no hood to block light would work better.
Either way, without a light source or in the shade, they would still be not much better than regular sights. At least not enough better to justify the price and extra bulk for carry.

I think the designer had good intentions, but failed on design and delivery here.

Concept sights on a concept pistol... i tried looking for Edon Tech to find some info on the pistol & nada came up.


edit... i just found this on the pistol company.

Nope, too bulky. Hell no for $180.

I love innovation and hope they do well but I don't see it.

You can take a good look at a T-bone by sticking your head up a bull's ass, but wouldn't you rather take the butcher's word for it?

 

[zackmars]

No. Just read the description. When they say stuff like that, they are full of it, and the product they are selling exists only to transfer funds from one wallet to another

Simple peep sights still work better. Then you have red dot sights too.

Yet again, an innovative and imaginative way to fix something that ain't broken.

I think entrepreneurism is great.

Wish them well.
Would have a cup of coffee with them. Would not invest.

For concealed carry. Introducing the.....ugh.....ahhh....er........snag-omatic.

Seems like a funky new take of a ghost sight to me.
I’ll pass.

An answer to a question nobody asked?

Peep sights do not eliminate or minimize peripheral parallax.Peep sights are almost exclusively on rifles and long guns because to work properly it has to be close to the eye.There are some GHOST RING options for handguns,but restricted sight picture and perfect presentation are why there so few out there.

Typical red dot is more bulky than this sight and I would guess more fragile,given the glass and electronics . Website indicates the sights are made in USA. Products made in third world, and or communist countries do tend be cheaper.

I have never seen those before. Do they work? I was looking into red dots, but just not sure what way to go.

Not sure if they work. I haven't had a chance to hold a pistol with them installed.

A buddy of mine put a red-dot on his Sig m17. He said it was a game changer. He's gonna let me try it out. I'm curios to see...
