Projecting your use of adult diapers now. Good comeback. I like your style

Neither are old men who think they know all there is to know.

So...Does the man who can effectively put rounds on target with the same rate of fire and group as tightly with irons deserve more respect than the shooter who uses an optic to attain an equal finish? All being equal other than the added optic.... What are our members opinions on this subject?

I think most of us believe in “you do you”

for me- I am a believer of the RDS on pistols.

Interesting bit of info- the coverage of a standard front sight over a 10 yard target is two inches. My dot at the same distance only covers 0.325”- but that is superimposed and not really covering it at all. Now at 50 yards the standard Glock front sight covers over 9 inches. My dot covers only 1.625”.

For G-26 (std 0.140 front sight):

Coverage:
At 25 yards = 5 inches
At 15 yards = 3 inches
At 10 yards = 2 inches
At 50 yards = 10 inches (9.93)

For G-34 (std 0.140 front sight):

Coverage:
At 25 yards = 4.7 inches
At 15 yards = 2.8 inches
At 10 yards = 1.9 inches
At 50 yards = 9.4 inches

never said i did and i wasn't the one that got offended over the comment "ounces equal pounds" then started a butt hurt tyrade defending your choice to put optics on a pistol. BTW, optics on a edc is GHEEEYYYYYYEEEEEE !

it is not even a contest- the coverage of a standard front sight over a 10 yard target is two inches. My dot at the same distance is 0.325”. But at 50 yards the standard Glock front sight covers over 9 inches. My dot covers only 1.625”

Front sight distance = 23.5 inches

Coverage:

At 25 yards = 5 inches

At 15 yards = 3 inches

He provided results to his shooting ability without going a butt hurt tyrade like you

I’m not sure how providing measurements on target coverage by a known dimension relates to shooting ability. Are you drunk or just bored and stupid?

 

[Mr. Goodbar]

probably carries a 45

I was just about to ask the same thing. His results will not be the same as your or anyone elses so are you, bored, stupid or I suspect a combination of the lot. Hey, you keep believing the dream
