When to use red dot? When to use green dot? Here’s a quick breakdown of the differences and when to choose each.
Red Dot Sight:
Pros: Red dots are better inlow-light conditions, offerquick target acquisition, and work well in most shooting scenarios. They are also compatible with night vision devices.
Cons: In bright light, red dots can be harder to see. Additionally, they may be difficult for people with astigmatism to use, as they can appear blurry.
Green Dot Sight:
Pros: Green dots are easier to see in bright lightand are moreastigmatism-friendly, as they don’t cause the same distortion as red dots.
Cons:They can be harder to see against green backgrounds (like in forests), and they may not work well with some night vision devices, so you'd better check about that with the manufacturer.
Which to Choose?
For bright daylight or astigmatism: Go with a green dot.
For low-light or night vision compatibility: A red dot may be the better option.
In short, your environment and visual needs should guide your decision. If you're still unsure, try a sight like VictOptics’ RDSL24. It offers both red and green dots, four reticle types, and five illumination settings, making it adaptable to all kinds of environments.
