    I am curious about the longer barrel. I would like to be more accurate with the blaster and have it veer off less.

  • @benlosi
    @benlosi День тому

    Red dots will never be zeroed in as darts never shoot with the same consistant accuracy out the barrel. I prefer fiber optic irons as its easier to adjust your aim based on knowing the irons always center the blaster rather than red dots trying to center the dart

    I actually use both simultaneously. I have a very low profile red dot mounted to keep the height over bore to a minimum and it allows me to co-witness my irons through my red dot Irons are for one set of range and my red dot is for the rest. I’ve been meaning to do a load out video , when I do I’ll cover that part more in detail. But the TLDR is best of both worlds.

    • @AaronPlinks

      Yea, if costs and weight/bulk are not a concern, with the proper compatible equipment and setup, both can be mounted and used together. Looking forward to your loadout video. 👍

    I use ladder style laser cut translucent acrylic iron sights for my primary (which fires at about 230FPS) i find the very wide field of view due to the translucent panels to be very helpful in reducing the feeling of tunnel vision. The higher ladder rungs also make it very easy to accommodate for drop with long range shots consistently. They are a little ugly as they're the same style that is typically used on grenade launchers, but they work extremely well for both close and long range.

    • @AaronPlinks
      @AaronPlinks 5 днів тому

      Translucent grenade launcher irons seems like a good choice and alternative to traditional irons.

  • @IkAAris521

    I run Sig Romeo 5s or the CVLife clones of them on most of my primary blasters. I use either a small flip up red dot or built in irons for small blasters like my gnk-200 or ngale. I like red dots bc it’s really easy for me to shoot with both eyes open and use the dot mostly as a quick reference, but also have the sight there for shots that I’m placing carefully

  • @terence79chan
    @terence79chan 5 днів тому

    Great comparison points bro! For shooting those micro nerf target boards, iron sights definitely win as there is less room for error Eyeballing the red dot off-center would miss the small target by 2cm even at a close distance. LOL

    My biggest problem with BR is the fact that if you buy one of their blasters and there's something wrong with it when you get it, which definitely can happen during shipping, you're pretty much screwed cause the don't offer a warranty or anything and just expect you to take it on "faith of products made in China". That statement alone is a joke and considering the prices they charge, there's just too much risk in buying from them.
