Holographic Sight Vs. Red Dot Sight
The holographic weapon sight is optically, electronically, and otherwise superior to red dot sights. The two types of sight differ in optical performance and construction.

The HWS has...

A 65 MOA ring with a 1 MOA dot, the finest dot available in any optic. It provides an optimal compromise between speed and accuracy
A tubeless, heads-up display window that provides an unlimited field of view, allows operators to maintain critical peripheral vision for engaging multiple-threat situations
State-of-the-art technology proven to deliver far superior target acquisition speed
In contrast, the red dot style sight is 30-plus-year-old technology with very little enhancement.

Hope this helps
