No but several of the old school gunfighters such as Jelly Brice, Walter Walsh and Bill Jordan had better than 20/20 vision when they were younger and while Walsh’s eyesight deteriorated slightly with age he was still 20/20 into his 80s. Jordan had some better than average reflexes and hand eye coordination

When I bought my first concealed carry handgun in 1995, I didn’t select one with crappy sights because I thought crappy sights were acceptable. I picked one with crappy sights simply because everything I saw in multiple gun shops in the size I needed had crappy sights. If a wanted a small frame .38 or a compact .380, the only question was exactly which version of crappy sights I was going to be stuck with.
The vast majority of the times I thought I might be about to need a gun were in poor light. Sights that work well in poor light are mandatory to me on any gun I select for serious purposes.
The quality of the available sights was one of the biggest factors which led me to purchase a Glock 26 at a time when I had been a revolver user who believed in six for sure.
If I were buying a small frame .38 today, a Ruger LCR would be one of my top choices, mostly for the easy availability of a tritium front sight. Now that gun makers are finally starting to figure out that a small frame revolver can have good sights, I predict bright futures for those who provide good sights and dim futures for those who don’t.

And then there's this:
Right around the 13:30 marks a screw falls out and the Executive is out of action.
It does highlight the fact that revolvers need more attention and that it always a good idea to check everything before use, but it is not a good look for something sold as top tier and coming from its own production room.
I am going to continue to search for the appropriate 3" Smith.
I will keep an eye on Taurus as I think they are headed in the right direction.
