So, just out of curiosity from a high drag, low speed civilian IT guy such as myself, how does shooting for the A zone (which is mostly high center mass) not indicative to real world application in a defensive situation? Since the dot is a target focused sighting system, how is the dot NOT an advantage if one takes Leatham's advice and simply "float the dot and shoot the shot" at ANY given distance, let alone fairly close where precision is not necessarily required?
I agree that we'll probably yet see some marginal improvements in iron sights for pistols in the near future before dots become ubiquitous, but as long as those improvements are still of notch and post variety, how much "transition time" will there really be in getting used to those new sights? To me that's less than a week of dry fire under normal reps. In general, sights are sights, dots are dots. There's not going to be a ton of difference in how those systems work between iterations.
I get that you don't do competitions and what your reasons are for not doing them. There are also other HSLD dudes that don't do competitions that do run dots with BUIS and recognize the benefits that they give them.
I say all that not to sound snarky or adversarial, but your stance and viewpoints seem to be inverse to what I'm hearing from other people in similar professions that have also put the time in.
