Regarding the KR training study, I’ve been in contact with him and he’s been very helpful in providing information regarding the results of his study, as well as what he feels the limitations were, and what he would have done differently were he to do it now.
Having conducted somewhat similar attempts at quantifying performance skills, motor learning, and other aspects of firearms proficiency, particularly as it relates to pistol optics, I totally understand the idea that you start with a goal, and at the end realize how many things that could have, or should have been done.
I still think the results of his study have merit, not only to show the fact that pistol optics need training, especially for those who are used to iron sights. I also think that his study dovetails with the Norwich study, the Sage Dynamics study, and I’m finding that what I am working on right now doesn’t conflict with any of those, and just adds another piece to the puzzle, which we will hopefully end up solving soon.
