I read on here recently (can't remember who but if it's you, please chime in so I can thank you) that an individual stated he shot better by pointing rather than aiming at close range. Today, I took my LCP out (as I do every weekend) for some practice and tried the pointing technique. I found that I can shoot just as accurate by using a quick draw and point rather than taking time to aim. My groupings were pretty much the same with each technique but I got more shots off by just pointing and I was able to keep my eye on the target. I'd say the gun was 6 to 8 inches below my dominate eye every time and I am confident that my SA was much higher. It felt great not having to close an eye and concentrate on the sights.
I was shooting between 8 and 10 feet each time and I'd say my groupings were in an area of the palm of my hand. I am very happy with the results I got today! I plan on working with this technique more in the next few weeks rather than spending the time to aim.
I would never do this from a distance just so you know. I am only talking close range with a broad target right in front of me.
Has anyone else tried and had success with this technique?
