Protect Your Dot and Improve Your Shooting with the Strike Optic Cover
Luke Cuenco 10.31.23
Red Dots have become so common now that it’s almost more likely that you’ll be carrying a red dot at some point on your handgun. If you’re still in the middle of making the transition from shooting irons to shooting a red dot, you might need a little help with shifting your focus to the target instead of getting sucked into the dot. The new strike Optic Cover is a two-in-one solution that allows you to shoot occluded (something most people accomplish just by slapping tape on their optic’s front window) but also serves as a protective cover for your optic that requires no tools to install or remove.

Take your training on the range to the next level with the integrated lens cover designed to enhance your use of a red dot sight, enabling users to practice Occluded Dot Training. Occluded shooting is a very helpful exercise to help those who may have been taught to shoot with only one eye open to use both instead. This technique (often used by competition shooters) acclimates one’s vision when using pistol optics by forcing the non-dominant eye to see your target while the dominant eye sees the dot when the lens is covered. Your brain will merge these two images and provide a clear picture, allowing for faster target acquisition and engagement.
If you’re new to pistol red dots, and want to become proficient with them fast, this product will be immensely helpful to you. The Strike Optic Cover perfectly blends protection and performance, making it an indispensable addition to your firearm.
