I'm assuming that the sight mechanism will allow you to tag where a prior shot hit compared to where you placed the optic, and adjust to make future shots impact where you place the dot. 2 things: #1 This is for stationary targets I'm assuming? It looks to me like the dot marks the specific point where you want the bullet to go, and the gun fires when you are aligned to make the bullet hit that spot. To hit your target, the target has to be at that spot. If your target moves, the bullet is going to the spot, not the target. #2 Triggering the mechanism to put the spot on target doesn't seem to be easier than pulling the trigger when your sights are on target. I bet it could shrink offhand groups at 200 yards though, mark your target from a rest, stand up and impress your friends.

To me this is a gimmick. If its only useful arena is on a target range, (I can't see how this would be a real advantage hunting or in combat), it allows you to have accurate hits without having to work to acquire skills, but those skills are necessary for marksmanship in those other more purposeful arenas. Who knows this may just be a first step product though.
