Does anyone make an etched reticle pistol site? Yes, I have an astigmatism and if I turn up the brightness on any red dot I start to see a starburst pattern.

Fix your astigmatism. Why on earth do people not think of that first I'll never knowDoes anyone make an etched reticle pistol site? Yes, I have an astigmatism and if I turn up the brightness on any red dot I start to see a starburst pattern.
Avoid HS/Huanic at all costs because they're funded and controlled by the CCP. The CCP is our greatest external threat and they're undermining our republic from within through the democrats. The CCP also performs forced organ harvesting on people. They released the Wuhan virus. The list goes on and on.I’m not aware of any prismatic RDS. Have you tried a holosun with the circle dot? You can turn off the middle dot and the circle itself probably won’t bloom on you.
I don’t think anyone else makes a circle dot for a pistol RDS, so that may be his only option. Better something than nothing.Avoid HS/Huanic at all costs because they're funded and controlled by the CCP.

He can go to an optometrist, fix the root problem, and then use a real sight like Trijicon.I don’t think anyone else makes a circle dot for a pistol RDS, so that may be his only option. Better something than nothing.

Those are definitely chinesium. Also, they don't warranty the glass, and they only offer a two and a half year warranty on the rest of it. And they list the mount pattern as the C-more pattern.Try a bigger dot. The starburst starts to go away at 8MOA for me. These guys offer up to 10MOA and same end manufacturer as Sig optics.
Well then maybe Trijicon or Sig could use some of their globohomo MIC money to release an updated MRD as good as the holosun.
They have these things called glasses, too.I have a cousin who is an eye surgeon, he recommends putting off laser surgery as long as humanly possible.

This ^^^.Holosun puts money into gimmicks. Trijicon puts money into quality.
Holosun reticles are beyond stupid if you know how to use a pistol RDS. The big circle makes you focus on it instead of the target. The 2 MOA dot is retarded in a pistol.
The solar panel is useless since the pistol spends most of its time in the dark (concealed or in storage) and the auto brightness is borderline useless as it doesn't respond until the light change has overwhelmed the reticle.
I know all this because I gave one a honest try. Found it wanting in the extreme. Hobby-grade is all that it is.
Nobody who is serious about competing in Carry Optics uses one.

And I wear them, have for two years now. They suck and don't help very much.They have these things called glasses, too.
Might need to find a better optometrist. My astigmatism is zero unless I try to look through the edges of the lenses.I wear glasses. They are an imperfect solution for even mild astigmatism, to put it mildly.
Laser surgery is the plan when I can find a few weeks of downtime.

That's part of my problem - it's possible to look through the center of the lenses during most conditions, but inevitably there are cases where it's necessary to look through a "corner" of the lenses, and then the dot gets blurry. It's fair to question whether this is a meaningful issue for pistol shooting.
ALSO: Try shooting them. Looking at the dot almost everyone for almost every dot gets starbursts, commas, comets, blurs, etc. Ignore it. Look at the target, align the dot without looking AT it and fire. It works.
One of the worst things about shooters not knowing how to properly use a Dot Sight/target focus- they think the reticle style and color matter and so they're buying gimmicky Chinesium optics from CCP companies instead of duty rated optics from allied nations.
My opinion: Yes.You mean gimmicky Chinesium optics like this?
Ya not everyone is you. I have keratoconus that they did Lasik and were only able to correct so much and corrective lenses only go so far. It’s not terrible but still noticeable. I agree on the point of target focusMight need to find a better optometrist. My astigmatism is zero unless I try to look through the edges of the lenses.

Lol what a joke. Go in there and read their comparison between their thing and red dotsThere is this that exists.

Have no clue how well it works nor do I know anyone who uses it.
That thing is still being sold? Retarded stuff like that usually has a short market life.There is this that exists.
