It may seem counterintuitive to mount a micro red dot (MRD) optic on a small pistol designed for concealed carry, but that is just what many CCW practitioners are doing. Many who carry concealed feel that the added bulk and weight of the optic is outweighed by the ability to obtain a clear sight picture quickly. Some older CCW practitioners also face declining eyesight, which leads them to look for an alternative to open sights. Superimposing a red dot on the target is much easier for the eye to accomplish than aligning open sights, while putting the front sight on the target.
