@GideonOptics is joining us today! We'll be talking red dots, rifle optics, and their approach to developing innovative, dependable optics for today's gun owners.

Veteran's Day. No sale. No big call-to-action, buy-now-while-supplies-last.

Just gratitude to the vets we know and work with. Thanks for when you did back when, and we're glad you're still with us now.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

We are living in a golden age of affordable performance for everything you see here. The rifle, the optic, the can, the ammo, it's all available at historically low prices and historically high quality. And that's not going to last forever, or anywhere close to it.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

I wish we could find the words to properly express how much pride we put into everything that has the "G" logo engraved on it.

We know times are tough out there. It's our honor and our duty to give you the best optics we can in exchange for your hard earned dollars.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

You can have just a little Gideon. As a treat.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Listen to the man in the corner of your screen. ALL Pebble models are currently available, both open and fully enclosed emitter variants, both red and green emitters. Get your @smithandwessoninc BG2.0 pocket pistol capable of serious work at 15 yards (like this) and beyond.

Not playing dress up with this thing. Trying to decide how to configure the excellent @Springfield_Inc Hellion. Would you LPVO it and deal with the additional weight and bulk, or leave it 1x with a dot or Advocate prism?

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

RIP Patrick Stewart. That's it. That's the post.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Is performance the only thing that matters in a carry gun? Do you always choose the gun that puts rounds in the A-zone fastest, or would you ever tote a gun that's slower, not as accurate, but appeals to you because it's a classic, looks awesome, or has sentimental value?

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

We really wish the industry would standardize more on screw thread pitch for pistol mounted optics. Until then, you get a hardware store in every box. Here's Judge for example.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Ok but seriously, what class of pistol are you actually carrying for EDC right now?

A. Pocket pistol
B. Single Stack / Subcompact
C. Compact / Service Pistol
D. Wheelieboi
E. I'm still scared to carry IRL

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Is that not where my thumb goes?

@dauntless214 Honestly my favorite LPVO we make is also the cheapest one, the 1-6x. It's three beans in 2026 money which is nuts in terms of value, and has fiber optic, daylight bright illumination that lets you run it fast like a dot up close. I prefer the green illumination myself. --Mike

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

The problem with all FFP LPVOs is the same, the reticle disappears at 1x and you have to crank illumination up to max and hope you can see the middle point of aim. Guardian 1-8x FFP can be used quickly at close range, at 1x magnification, without using illumination at all.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Did you know the direct mount Valor Mini Gen 6 co-witnesses with the factory sights on Gen 6 Glocks? As you can see, it sits very low indeed.

But you should still change out those factory ball-in-a-bucket plastic sights. Because eww.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Where are our motorcyclists? Who else totes a Gideon-equipped EDC while on two wheels?

(Yes I wear more than a tee shirt while riding, ease off internet safety officers)

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

I got to run @dsim65's 9mm wheelieboi enough to learn that 9mm revolvers are awesome. I forget how many cases of ammo he's thrown through this combo but the Gideon Rock is a couple years old now and still soldiering on. @TaurusUSA has come so far, don't sleep on them.

[Shawn Herrin 🔫 @WeLikeShooting]

Pocket lint was the unexpected performance test

An old coworker sent his pic out of the blue today. Bro just wanted me to know he's snagged his third Omega, an OPMOD from Optics Planet. Never asked for a discount, just wanted us to know he's a fan. Feels good man.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

LPVO on a PCC. Dumbest idea ever, or ahead of its time?

This is Guardian 1-6x with 0.25 MOA per click in the turrets, super bright fiber optic illumination in red or green, and yours for just three beans. It's SO good.

[GideonOptics @GideonOptics]

Does Shawn even realize he's giving off Jedi Knight vibes here?

[Shawn Herrin 🔫 @WeLikeShooting]

Poncho weather is here. What would you conceal carry in this get'up?
