I would like to get some feed back on those of you that have a 1911 with a red dot sight. Do you prefer it over iron sights? Do you have iron sights to index? On the few I've seen there were no iron sights. One ingenious person had two slides; one with the red dot and the other with standard sights. Wonder which sight to carry on a particular day. If you have a 1911 with a red dot sight, what manufacture (gun and optic)? Another interesting question along the same line, I noticed that in competition there was an optic class. Does this mean that if you have a 1911 with a red dot you have an advantage over iron sights. If so, why would you ever want a gun that didn't have such a sight as EDC choice? If I shoot better with a red dot, and we know that they are easily carried concealed, and I am more accurate, quicker, should I not always go optic, especially if indexed with iron sights? I have a ZEV with a Trijicon RMR-Type 2 sight. It's coindexed with iron sights, and makes me a much better shooter than I am. However, no 1911's with optic and am finding that choices are a bait more limited for the 1911 than for the numerous striker fired pistols. Hope I get some productive feedback and comments on this subject.
