Again With the Front Sight!

Three things make focusing on the front sight a critical part of marksmanship: the geometry of sight alignment, the human eye’s depth of field and what wiggles the most on a firearm. Let’s start with geometry.

Again With the Front Sight!

Good post and I think we have discussed this before and you should see some improvement if you focus on your front sight. Your rear sight will be a little blurry as well as your target. I believe we have talked about who shoots with both eyes open or not. I shoot both eyes open and my front sight is as clear as I can make it and it works well.

I like that green front sight. I may switch out the red pipe for a green one.

Front sight, what front sight? The only way I can see my front sight is to tilt my head back to an uncomfortable angle using my bifocals. I have been target-focused for the last couple of years. That rear peep sight does look interesting.

I use almost exclusively target focused shooting with iron sighted guns. Front sight makes you slow and for me - less accurate in a practical context. If I need to print itty bitty groups on a B8 - then that's a different story - but just hitting a target - target focus is the way - out to at least 15 yards for me. at 25 I have to spend more loving care lining up the sights.
 
Green laser dot paints the target quite nicely, and lets me focus on the target.

Contrasting tritium-plus-light pipe iron sights (orange back, green front) serve well as the backup if the battery in the laser goes south - I can still target-focus, and put the green blur between the orange blurs. In zero-light situations, I just line up the three blurs while looking at the target.
