In short, quality modern red dots are durable, handgun mounted red dots allow the shooter's focal point to remain on target, and handgun mounted red dots drastically improve accuracy.

Handgun red dot sights are all the rage these days, but also the source of a lot of controversy – much like red dot sights for rifles not that many years ago. As technology improves, micro red dots durability improves, and batteries last longer – the pistol red dot is only going to get more popular. At this rate, red dots on a pistol will be as ubiquitous as optics on a carbine.

To prove that point, Aaron Cowan from Sage Dynamics has spend the last 4 years conducting a study on the use of handgun red dot sights, specifically for police duty handguns.

This was really interesting and good to know...

Interestingly, this handgun red dot study also found Energizer and Sony batteries cannot reliably withstand the handguns' recoil, but Duracell's batteries held up to a handgun's recoil.

Yes. Duracell is pretty much the bombdiggity when it comes to alkaline batteries. They'll repair or replace your device if their batteries ever leak and ruin it. And man do non Duracells seem to leak.

They also have a special team of folks who go into natural disaster areas in the country and hand out free batteries and charge devices for people. Which is kinda cool.
