That's one of the great advantages of a dot sight- quick target acquisition.

I remember my brother having an old Qwik Point red dot scope in the early 1970s. It used ambient light collected by a large red fiber optic and offset it to your view through a scope tube. The dot was superimposed over your target and it had a big red dot over the target.

Worked really nice but it was big and obtrusive. Pretty nice for early 70s, though.

I sold it when I got it from him years later. Seemed useless, then, but it would have been nice to have as a keepsake.
