Handgun optics, especially compact reflex sights, can offer improved accuracy and target acquisition. Red dot-equipped handgun sales have steadily been on the rise throughout the last decade, and more firearm manufacturers are offering optics-ready pistol models for personal defense. These optic-ready guns are a great place to start if you’re considering red dots or similar optics. Some of the models include the SIG Sauer P365XL, Stoeger STR-9 Optics-Ready, Springfield Armory Hellcat OSP, and Glock G19 MOS.
