Gun shooting: How to get the right sight for person with unbalance sight.

When you own a gun you must familiarize it to get your best shot but for the people who has an unbalance sight they have to take extra experiment to get the right sight.

 

Picture A

If your vision is unbalance, the tendency is, when you point your gun on the target and look at the sight you will saw two image of gun, (Picture A) as well as the target, one is clear and one is dim, the clear one is from your clear eye, the dim one is from your defective eyes.

 

There are many techniques in shooting but I want to focus on this matter for the people who have unbalance vision

 

It’s confusing when you saw two sights and two targets, you can’t hit the target. Like me, I have an unbalance sight I can’t hit properly the target, after my own study and familiarization I already got my proper sight,

 

For those who have unbalance sight and still having hardship to get their proper sight like me here how I solve this problem. If you want to learn this you have to get a replica of gun, don’t you ever do it with the real gun. Let’s do the experiment.

 

• Do it first in dry fire, dry fire means, target shooting with no magazine and bullet loaded in the gun chamber, and set the target, a clear small target that can clearly see, even in one eye.

• Point the gun on the target and with your left or right eye, on the gun site or whichever eye you want to use according to your sight, one eye close, the front and rear sight must be level, you can see a clear gun rear and front sight and the target.

• Then on that position, open your left eye, you will see two shadows of gun sight and two targets.  Close again your left eye slowly you will notice the left shadow of gun sight merger to the right shadow of target and the right shadow of target merger to the left shadow of the target.

 

Now, let’s get the sight to the right target, 

 

• As you can see the merging of the sight and the target, 

• Close your left eye, open eye (right) was on the gun site, you will see the shadow of gun in the right are pointing to the left shadow of the target, 

• Then changed, use you left eye. Close your right eye, and the left eye was open, the shadow of a gun in the left side is pointing to the right shadow of target.

After this process you can already establish which sight you will use, left or right sight.

 

Now get your right sight that you want to use as a dominant eye in shooting.

 

• If you want to use your right eye as a dominant eye in shooting, focus on left shadow of a gun pointing to the right target, 

• If you want a left eye, focus on the right shadow of the gun pointing to the left shadow of target. You should practice and familiarized this.

 

After this study and familiarization go to the shooting range for live bullet familiarization, 

 

• Wear a proper gadget for your safety, 

• Practice first the right sight with left eye close, see if you can hit the target with this sight 

• Then follow the left sight with right eye close, 

• Then if you establish the right and best sight for you to use as your dominant sight. 

• Practice with both eyes open; use your dominant eye that you can use every gun shooting session. 

• Practice it until you make it perfect.

 

This is for shooter who have unbalances sight and shooting with both eyes open, using your choose sight, left or right.

 

As a shooter you should shoot with both eyes open, so, you have a wide range of view. To see anything from your sides, it’s not advisable to shoot with one eye is closed; it’s like a horse with limited view.

 

Happy shooting.
