Farmingdale, NY -(AmmoLand.com)- The Mako Group announces that the Meprolight FT Bullseye, the brightest micro optic in the industry is now available for Springfield Armory XD and XDM model pistols.
The FT Bullseye solves a problem may other micro red dot optics face: bulkiness. Meprolight’s engineers combined fiber optics with tritium to create a low profile, single rear sight that won’t snag on clothing and fits into standard holsters.
The ultra-sleek design and easy-to-use functionality helps shooters to quickly acquire the target in all lighting conditions. With this inventive design, there’s no need for a front sight; it’s all in the red-dot.
When the dot is centered in the circle, you’re on target. It’s as simple as that!
Meprolight FT Bullseye
A shooter normally acquires the target by aligning the front and rear sights, but with the Meprolight FT Bullseye, there’s no need. Meprolight combined the dot and the circle on the rear sight, eliminating the need to use the front sight. Whether in competition or in defensive situations, the goal is to place rounds on target quickly and accurately. The FT Bullseye’s design is intuitive and allows the shooter to quickly and accurately get on target. When milliseconds count, give yourself the advantage.
To see the sight in action, follow this link to our YouTube channel featuring Master Chief Brian Sargent, USN, Ret., who served as an elite, decorated member of the SEALS on our YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/PCnFY5t-kzk.
The FT Bullseye is available in red or green dot/circle for all Glock models (including suppressed) with a MSRP of $199 and select Springfield models with a MSRP of $209.70.
Meprolight guarantees the tritium to last up to 12 years, which makes it the perfect sight for law enforcement, self-defense and competitive shooters.

Single piece Trapezoidal rear sights are nothing new , You look down the channel of the elongated rear sight and when you actually see the target through the channel, you are on target. Red dot holographics work the same way. when you see the dot you are on target. Do you have issues using a scope on a rifle? not id you have the rifle straight with your eye. Same thing here. If you see the green dot you are aligned (even though the front sight isnt part of the equation). The principle is the same as the pin sight… Read more »
You’re right. Anytime you change a fundamental piece of gear you have to retrain. And then you have to keep training/practicing with it. Sootch00 does a good job in the video with the original T.A.S. The Meprolight FT Bullseye increases shooting capabilities in lighting conditions. The dot/circle sight picture stands out, thereby making it faster to pick up.
I suppose one has to retrain themselves to focus on the rear sight.
The following video does a better job of demonstrating the sight functionality:

You’re right. Anytime you change a fundamental piece of your gear you have to retrain. Then you need to continue to train to maintain proficiency. Sootch00 does a good job in the video with the original T.A.S. design. The Meprolight FT Bullseye increases the versatility. No matter what you use, you still have to rounds downrange.
You’re right. Anytime you change a fundamental piece of gear, you need to retrain. Then continue to train/practice. Sootch00 did a good job on the video you shared using the original T.A.S. The Meprolight version is much better. The improvements increase shooting capabilities. Highly experienced shooters adjusted to it quickly.
Actually, the sight works quite well. When the dot is centered in the circle, the barrel is aligned and you are on target.
I work for the ad agency which handles Meprolight/The Mako Group in the U.S. I got my hands on the FT Bullseye and have been able to run several mags using it. I adjusted to the dot/circle quickly.
What a poor video. It does not explain how the sight works. Great, I can see a green dot at night, but if it doesn’t help me align the barrel with the target what good is it? This is one sight I would have to see in person before I would buy.
Single rear sight with no front sight. I wonder how well that works.
Actually works good. How good does a red dot work on an AR?
