When I went to the NRA's indoor range recently, I had to take a written test. Part of it had to do with drawing a 6 o'clock hold. I later wondered how many people shoot a 6 o'clock hold or point-of-aim.
What are your views? How would you find a 6 o'clock hold on a bad guy? Or put more directly, if your gun is cranked in to shoot high, how would that affect your point of aim in a defensive situation? At close range, using your front sight might be just fine. But at further distances, how would it affect your shots?
Do yo shoot at point-of-aim or do you favor the 6 o'clock hold? Why, or why not? And do you use the same aiming for both revolvers and autos? The pistol I shoot with most is a Ruger Security-Six, and I favor a point-of-aim -- but I wonder how the rest of you guys shoot. And how are fixed-sight pistols cranked in?
