Hey everyone,
I am kind of young, and have never been hunting. I have been invited to go hog hunting at night on someone's property. The friend who invited me has mentioned he owns a laser light. While I am confident this may help out with night hunting, I am in a weird place at the moment. Having never been hunting, I have never been night shooting, only at ranges during daylight/well lite. My irons are matte black and I am unsure that I would be able to see properly and make a humane shot on the hog.
I used to own a cheapy $99 1-4x20(?) optic from a sports store that barely kept its zero, so I am not chancing it on another magnified optic that costs money. I see some nice red dots for around $300 but also have noticed a "SeeAll" sight for $100. While considering this I ask if it is worth it. Summer is coming up, and I have plenty of time before the hunt begins, but I am unsure if it would be better to go with black Iron sights, or try to go for some other sight which might be better for low-light situations.
What do you guys think?
