Well, I have been shamed by this thread: https://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=80
I added night sights to my Glock 17. I took it to the range today and here are the results.
This is a drill I used to perform everytime I went to the range. I would do it cold and how well I did on the drill would determine what I did at the range that day. If long range accuracy sucked, I worked on it. If it was OK I did a little on the long range stuff and then worked on other things. If I managed to keep them all in the black, I'd do fun stuff like Bill Drills. Today, I warmed up first.
The drill is 10 rounds at 7, 15, and 25 yards. 7 yards is 10 rounds, one magazine as fast as you can keep them in the 10 ring. 15 yards is 5 rounds in two magazines as fast as you can keep them in the black. 25 yards is the same as 15 yards.
Two disclaimers, I have shot ONCE since I attended a Larry Vickers class in May, and that was for a range safety checkout at a Gun Club I'm attempting to join. The final target was shot at the very end of the range session and I had several bottles of water prior. In other words I was a bit "over-hydrated."
You'll see writing on the targets because I was recording what type of adjustments I needed to make to the sights when I got home. I forgot my sight pusher at home.
First up, my G17 with Ameriglo operator sights. What I like about the Ameriglos is POI for me is right where the dot is.
Next up, Glockenstein. Glockenstein is a G35 receiver, with a G24 slide and a 9mm to .40cal KKM conversion barrel. Like it's namesake, Frankenstein, it's green.
Glockenstein wears a set of Meprolights which require a 6 o'clock hold of which I'm not fond.
As you can see both guns were shooting left. Glockenstein was really left and I tried compensating with the last target by shifting the hold to the right, which I believed opened up the group.
Edited to get the pic order right.
