So my eyesight has really taken a hit as I've entered my late 40's, and it was never too great to begin with.
I've always shot 5" 1911's in CDP in IDPA, and when I started shooting SSP got a Glock 35 for its longer barrel. But lately I've been shooting a service model XD with a 4" barrel, and doing fairly well.
Still, I wonder if I'd be doing better with a 5" tactical model. So I'm wondering if anyone has any input on whether longer or shorter barrels have worked for you, particularly if your eyesight is at the declining point mine seems to be at.
