      I guess that makes sense if you have $0.12 5.56, but even cheap optics are pretty good now and iron sights are far less performant across the board, especially for new shooters or people who don’t have time to train extensively. It’s a great skill for sure, just putting a counterpoint out there.

      For some people, using any optic is the difference between knowing what you’re shooting at and blind firing. It’s me I’m some people.
