Most defensive shots will be at 7 yards or less. Most times you will not have time to take a sight picture, and the shot will have to be instinctive.C-dub wrote:To clarify, I've been practicing taking the shots with the gun held from hip to chest height. The groups on the paper have been about 4-5" groups with three rapid shots. I figure I won't always have the luxury of being able to take a properly aimed shot in a SD situation due to time and proximity.
With that said, i do have night sights on my main defense guns. The reason is when I need to grab it quickly at night if rousted out of bed I can easily see where the gun is in the dark.
