Modern movies and TV shows have very fast-paced editing. Scenes quickly change, unexpectedly. You will not know when the scene will shift, and you will learn to get your front sight on the actor's head quickly, and squeeze off a dry-fire hammer or striker fall, very quickly.

Has anyone ever put a round through their TV doing this? I suspect so. Don't you do that. Clear your weapon, repeatedly and frequently. And, don't mix alcohol with this practice.

Nice added benefit: the bright TV back-lighting on your front sight lets you clearly see where the sight went at the moment of striker or hammer fall. Call your shots, low, high, left, right. Look for the pattern and correct it.
Ken, did you happen to read the rules of this forum?

"Practice with your TV set."

Do us a favor and keep little gems like that for AR15.com
