I love it.One of the best actual gunfighters to ever live , Jim Cirillo of the late 60s early 70s New York stakeout squad championed a method of firing using the rear of the pistol, or in his case mostly revolvers as one big sight.It worked well for him in super fast up close shootings with a real armed felon shooting back.

I think that’s a great idea, and it challenges people’s fundamental idea of necessary accuracy.

Being able to shoot the wings off a fruit fly is quite an accomplishment, but I’ve seen people stress way too much about stacking shots when all they really need to do is make hits.

Hits count!

“No, it isn’t that holographic baseball card or the animated picture thing from the claw machine …”

Yes, it is. Instead of a pic the background is green.

In reply to Spencer Feldman. For ease of consideration only for normal width Glocks or are there versions for other firearms (admittedly Glock is a great initial focus) and price range? Will look at it more later on but makes things easier for others in the comments.

Thanks for mentioning my optic. To be clear, it only corrects for up and down, not left and right. I could have done both, but that would require thinking during a gunfight and thinking takes time. I wanted speed. It’s the up and down that is less intuitive, especially since if the gun is too low, the hand obscures it and it’s easy to overcorrect in the 3 seconds the average gunfight lasts. Right and left is more like just pointing and easier to do. I get the ‘gimmicky’ response from people that read about it, but never from someone that actually tries it. When they see how much faster their sight acquisition is, it’s usually a moment of shock, then a smile. Take it out Force on Force and you can often get two shots off before your opponent even finds their sights. Len Baxley, 2x national and 1x world IDPA champion thought it was a gimmick until he let his students try. Everyone was faster and more accurate, with these sights… including Len. Here’s what he had to say https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-kPWcBQMtzk&t=2s

In reply to JimB. Some gimmicks can make for great training but I see this as a less capable pistol optic. Could work great when you train and get used to it but could be a problem if it is relied on solely.

More gimmicky nonsense that will give inexperienced shooters the promise of accuracy without training.
