Reflector or “reflex“ gunsights utilize the principle of light collimation to give the shooter a parallax-free aiming reticle and improve target acquisition. In this episode I look at a pair of WWII aircraft gunsights and a modern 'red dot' optic and discuss their operating principles and 120-year development history. Special thanks to Matt Heintz and Gord Crossley for providing the vintage gunsights shown in this video. Like what I make? Please consider supporting me on Patreon:
