    Interesting design. Link to his website with lengthy description here.

    I am not sure I see how the Y would work for better for longer range sight pictures. It looks like he combined the old type rifle sight with a post and notch. Everyone is trying to sell a better mousetrap.

    That said, I have taken a class with him and he is a damn good shooter. Not sure the sight would make a difference for a larger sample size of experienced or competitive shooters.

    I believe he's just saying that the tighter sight picture is better for precise shots, which I don't think many people would argue with. And then for larger/closer targets, just use the top portion of the sight with a looser sight picture.

    Looks like an updated and slicked up version of a semi buckhorn, which is not shown in the Wikipedia referenced image above.

    Looks cool, I guess. I get the idea. I just find myself caring less and less with each endorsed product these days. Every instructor seems to want their name on things for the sake of having their name on things. At least these are actually different.

    We could work together in an Atomic Tom Holster. Sell it with a Gadget. Coming soon.
