Choosing the right red dot optic can be tricky—especially with so many size and feature options. In this video, we walk through a clever breakdown of the Vortex Defender series, comparing the CCW, ST, and XL models to help you determine which one is right for your handgun setup.
Using a tongue-in-cheek “ChrissyLocks and the Three Green Dots” analogy, we explain why window size, optic controls, brightness settings, and overall fit matter, especially for shooters struggling to find their dot under pressure quickly. Whether running a micro-compact carry gun or a full-size range pistol, this comparison helps you choose the best red dot sight for your needs.
What You'll Learn:
Differences between Defender CCW, ST, and XL
How window size affects target acquisition
Brightness settings and user control explained
Ideal pairings for compact, mid-size, and full-size pistols
Why the Defender XL might be the “just right” optic for many shooters
