Anyone else think that using the sights on their pistols is completely stupid?
I'm in the 18-21 range and I don't carry yet but when I do I'm getting a classy subcompact 9 (like a P938 or something) and solely point shooting that shit.
I guess it'd be good to have minimal practice with the sights but honestly a pistol should be used as intended. Not like I'm going to aim in a self defense situation regardless of whether or not I'm trained, it'll be over in three seconds tops.
Who else? PS: using the sights on pistol is a recent, post-WWII technique, I'm not trying to break the rules or be edgy and shit. That's how it always was until this faggot pic related fucked that up.

all guns should be like basic hunting shotguns tbqh. if you can hit a chucker off instinct with a 20 gauge at 40 feet you can hit anything that means anything to anyone in public life. tbqh guns shouldn't have sights

>strawmanning for no reason at all
Fuck you, why would I ever need to use sights on a man sized target unless I'm shooting further than 20 yards
Most engagements happen within feet anyways
>>35119981
what if I was being sincere? :^)
>>35119993
Then you're still retarded because of that last sentence
idk why you are applying one specific scenario to all situations involving a pistol. sure for concealed carry to deal with robbery/assault you dont need to use sights but sometimes you need to aim to hit a certain thing a distance. fuck youre retarded.
>using the sights on pistol is a recent, post-WWII technique
Seems odd that all my antique guns have sights, then.
>It's another "No-guns anon knows how to shoot" episode
becoming a fucking MARKSMAN with your pistol
then, practice for self-defense

Look it up retard, case by case basis, the Luger has something like a thousand fucking yard sight adjustment but American soldiers didn't use their 1911 sights

>>35119927
For experienced shooters I agree, for beginners I think using the sights is fine.

>Anyone else think that using the sights on their pistols is completely stupid?
No, it's incredibly stupid to think so.
>I'm in the 18-21 range
That explains it.

You should be ashamed, kid.

>train to be retarded
>when the SHTF your skills degrade and you become VERY retarded
train for great, perform good
train for good, perform meh
train for meh, perform shit
train for shit, perform very shit
you are training for shit, and you will be very shit

These aren't scout rifles, they were designed before his concept and don't even meet the weight requirement, the k98 doesn't even meet length

go to the fbi file vault and read about how hanna reitsch flew to the furerbunker and got hitler to the fleet of subs that left for argentina where he lived out the rest of his days in peace

This is the least likely way they could've gotten to Argentina considering the state of the Kriegsmarine and the immensely powerful ASW forces the Allies had by '45.

You faggots can't do anything right. He shot himself in the side of the head with a .32 auto, not a revolver through the mouth.

thats nice sweetie, but its well documented; pretty much all the nazi officers that we didnt scoop up under operation paperclip (the men that lead our entire space program were all nazis, mostly ss at that) or the russians didnt kidnapped, sailed to south america

like what? genuinely curious.

the modern technique, scout rifles, stopping power myths (from believing in the magical 1 shot stop which developed the shitshow of 10mm and people carrying .44 magnums to believing 9mm/556 were inadequate), 1911 were/are good (go ask a veteran of ww2/veitnam if he liked his) , everyone should carry a full size handgun, training for ipsc rather than street fights, color system, flash sight picture, bren ten, carrying conditions, etc
about the only good thing he did was get more people into shooting, though even at that he was a complete dickhole which opened the door for all the pseudo hardcore gun """instructors""" we have today
>>35122222
>35122222
nice
yeah, fair points on all of that. i've read a book of his, and boston's gun bible back in the day. that guy was all over cooper's dick. agreed, he was a dick and a lot of the concepts he came up with were bullshit. most egregiously the fucking 9mm/556 is inadequate bullshit. 5.56 did pretty god damn alright for me when i was in iraq.
>>35122222
Oh lawdy checked and keked. Finally somebody says it and with holy digits, I got screeched at a year ago for saying the same shit.
You've given me a much-needed "I'm not alone!" confidence boost right before I sleep. Thank you, anon.
