TFB Review: Steiner MPS 2.0 Micro Pistol Sight - Is Newer Better?

In the world of pistol dots, there are two distinct camps: open emitter and enclosed emitter red dots. For a long period of time, I was a straight hater on enclosed emitters. My first experiences were with lower quality ones (not a good start), they didn’t fasten securely to the handguns I tested, and it left a really bad taste in my mouth.

Now, after several years, I have spoken with more shooters, law enforcement, and tested better quality enclosed emitters, which has me warming up to the idea of them. Steiner is a stalwart optics company known for their high quality, and they have announced their MPS (Micro Pistol Sight) 2.0  red dot today. Will newer equate to better in this enclosed emitter red dot?

Let’s dive in and find out!
