 As firearms technology advances, more and more individuals are starting to equip their duty pistols with micro red dot sights. Many are installing micro red dot sights and employing them without having proper training or practice with Pistol mounted RDS optics. This 16 hour RDS Instructor course will help Firearms Trainers teach shooters how to better familiarize themselves with the differences in use of iron sights vs. RDS equipped handguns and how to choose proper reliable equipment. Additionally, after completion of this course you will be able to train students how to deploy a RDS Pistol in a low-light environment utilizing both handheld and weapon mounted white lighting systems.
