I thought the same thing a while back.
I found that my eyesight wasn't the limiting factor: it was my trigger press.
If the lighting is good I can get by with my aging eyes.....if the lighting is poor I can put on some cheap reading glasses underneath some eyepro and I can see that front sight very clear.
Trigger press is where its at.
Regards.
Not this LE trade in. It's very heavy and overall terrible for a Glock. I've got some extra connectors laying around and plan on giving it a spa treatment.
During firing those ten rounds above, I kept pressing and waiting....pressing and waiting.....pressing......so much that I thought the trigger was dead and something had gone wrong with it. I'd put the weight in the neighborhood of 9-10 pounds. I'm borrowing a scale later this week to see what the average is.
I would guess that with a better trigger and a thinner front sight, I could tighten up the groups some.
My friend at the local range just got a Gen 3 G26, so we took it out for its first shots. Stock, out of the box.
He shot a really nice 54/60 with 3 in the 10 ring. I was hoping I wouldn't embarrass myself and managed a 56/60 with 4 in the 10 ring.
The interesting part to me was where are groups hit. He's a lefty, I shoot right handed. My group was low left and his was high right. Same gun, same target, same distance, same ammo but our groups were about 3 inches from each other.
Got a little concerned that I was spending too much time on slow fire B8 repair centers. So today at work, I ran two department timed quals with one target.
First time was center mass.....second qual was head shots only.
Starts at the 25 yard line (10 rounds in 50 seconds five standing/five kneeling) and everything else is 15, 7, 5, and 3 yards.
Still hate my trigger on my issue G17.4. Don't really care for those targets either as I was taught to shoot high center chest and not that low.....but free targets so.....
Regards.

These work even better than using readers under your shooting glasses. Feels like cheating. You do have to work out where to attach them to your lens for your eye and shooting style:

Ruger LCR .22. Very enjoyable working the DA trigger.
The back row of lights where out at the indoor range today.
94 Score.
Pistol HK45c …. Stock night sights and so called horrible da/sa trigger.
I must be the only person who likes the stock trigger.
Had to put a Green Birchwood Casey Target Spot on to help me get a sight picture.
