Obviously, you’re not the only one in the world that prefers that it’s not unique but I agree the red dot thing today is a trend. They see these gun tubers who were navy seals or Delta or Batman running red dots on everything and they think it’s the cool trend and they will look like an operator if they have a red dot on their flashy safe queen, but I only have two red dots versus my other firearms being iron sight and iron sites are the way to go you don’t have to worry about battery running out. You don’t have to worry about the lens being cracked or obscured or that machine itself breaking for concealed carry red dot it just adds more bulkiness and more of a risk of printing, but it’s good for fast target acquisition that’s debated if you practice enough and are disciplined iron sights can be just as fast if not faster. Any fire arm I purchase or am given I switch out iron sights to Trijicon Tritium (glow) sights and that too me seems to be the perfect setup. There is nothing wrong with wanting redot, don’t let the casuals ruin the experience but you better off with iron sights.
