SAP 1x - Micro Prism

The Atibal S.A.P. Micro Prism is the smallest and lightest prismatic scope on the market to date. The SAP is the ideal optic for short range and close quarters engagements, with its exceptionally small size and weight the SAP is extremely agile in tight spaces when speed and accuracy are paramount.  Unlike a traditional red dot sight where your reticle is projected against a plane of glass the SAP features a laser etched illuminated reticle which is apparent with or without illumination.

Red dot alternatives for astigmatism. 

The best solution would be to use a 1x fixed prism like the upcoming Atibal SAP, which uses a laser etched reticle versus an illuminated dot.  The great thing about 1x prisms is that they will still maintain a small footprint like a red dot, but with a laser etched reticle that will not have the distortion/starburst effect.  The other option is to go with a low powered variable optic (LPVO).  Yes, this option is much larger than a red dot but will give you much more versatility.  Same as a prism, it also uses a laser etched reticle.  With the LPVO you can use it at 1x magnification, much like a red dot, for fast target acquisition in close quarters all while having the capabilities of increased magnification for longer distance and more precise shots.
