I haven't read all of the posts but here is my opinion...
Focus on your target because odds are you aren't going to see your sights, nor should you in about 90% of confrontations. Only if you are moving away from you threat should you attempt to see your sights. And, should you be moving away from your threat and not closing the distance?
You are going to natually focus on the target and not the threat. At least that is what we have found in our training.
If you are within 10 feet of the threat(s) sticking your gun out where you can see your sights is foolish because you are sticking it out there where it can be taken away, or your arms cut and hands shot. Not a good game plan in our book.
We believe that you would be better served by having an intuitive aiming device such as a Crimson Trace laser grip where you will see the dot on the target. If the dot isn't on the target, don't shoot. It is that simple. And, more than likely you should be shooting from a retention format, again, dot on target, shoot.
