From your original post it kind of sounds like your pistol isn't that accurate. You may want to get it sighted first. And it's just iron sights right? Cause they can be adjusted on pretty much every gun.
well, most pistols can be a little difficult to adjust sights.

I know on some pistols like the 1911A1 among other older handguns you cannot adjust sights at all.

most pistols in a 3 dot config are adjusted best with a specialized windage tool if you can find one. if not then a rubberized tap hammer will have to do.. as for elevation, there's really not a whole lot that can be done.


My husband has an tool that came with his gun to adjust the irons, but his is a rifle and he bought it brand new. You would think most of them would come with their specifics tools, but if you're getting it from a previous owner, then there's no guarantee they still have it.
rifles like AK's and SKS's and some others need sight tools. most modern western guns have sights that are adjustable with no tools.


pistols on the other hand are short range guns, and their sights usually are set to be accurate from the factory.
target pistols come with easy adjustable sights, which are something that's too delicate to ever be used in any carry/duty/combat pistol.

95 percent of the time when a pistol misses, it's the shooter's fault.

put a handgun in a shooting vice and you'll find that it should hit targets at 100 and even beyond


He has an FS2000. But we don't use his iron sights anymore since I just got him a holographic sight for Xmas.
he didnt remove the irons did he?

what kind of holo is it? because a lot of them you can still use the irons through the little windows/lenses if you run out of batteries

No. He just added it on to his rail. It's an EOTech. I don't think that is the exact one, but I can't find his box...

GOOD

I used to have an EOTech when I had my AR.

you can definitely see your sights through the glass.

For being almost $500 is better be good. He's already sighted it in for himself...

Tactical LASER. Replaces the grip of almost any pistol with a grip-LASER. You squeeze the grip in the traditional pistol-holding-way and the LASER comes on. Wherever that LASER is, that's where your bullets go.

if people ALREADY know how to shoot,yes.


it's sure as hell not a get out of jail free card on learning proper grip, trigger pull, and the discipline to not anticipate the round going off.

as a matter a fact it can develop a dependency factor and encourage laziness in shooting. you'd be depriving yourself of properly learning how to shoot while relying on the the batteries inside the laser to work.

I can guarantee if you give an absolute newb a handgun and just tell them to pull the trigger when the laser is on target that they will miss just about every single time.

Psh, well when you apply logic to it, then you make my point invalid.

No, no, it's too late to try and rectify the damage you've already done... It's okay... Seriously, I'll be alright.

I take back what I said about handgun fine adjusting sights being delicate.

I've found an exception in my USP tactical. pretty thick and rugged sights
