I think a lot of the detractors were never shown how to do it properly - like a lot of things. They proally read some guru in a magazine say it doesn't work and made a half-assed attempt at it. They also may not be using it at the right distances, etc.

Lot of people been shot in the face by point shooters.

It seems to me that the more you practice the flash site picture and the faster you get, the more you are doing point shooting. That muscle memory kicks in and you get going so fast you just do it.

A while back, I moved my holster a little further back on the belt to hook it in behind that tool loop on the 5.11s. I noticed as soon as I did, I had to slow way down at very short ranges until I got used to it. It was changing all the muscle memory and I had to relearn. I'm pretty much back where I was now. Funny how little things make a big difference.

Like hanging a rucksack on a Golden Knight. LOL
