Yes, “they” do, for values of “they”.
You can have a scope with magnification as your “longer range” optic, and use something like a red dot for close-range shooting where the scope would get in the way.
You can do this by putting a “piggyback” sight on top of your big scope, but that gives you a lot of offset (your “dot” is far above where you shoot), which makes aiming harder. (And attaching a scope to a scope makes for suboptimal stability) The other method is by using an angled adapter, so you just turn the gun sideways a bit, and if you’re using the right stuff, you can just shoot like that with the same sighting and alignment.
Of course, that’s mostly useful for people who expect to shoot at stuff both 300m and 20m away, which generally means military, sports shooting and people who wish they could do either.
This makes me feel SO much better about forgetting people’s name and pronouns.
