Some sighting systems on handguns, such as on the Berettas I once owned, were of the "drive the dots" type, meaning that you lined up the sights exactly where you hoped to hit.
On other handguns, such as my 1911s and my Ruger GP-100, the preferred set-up is "six o' clock," where one holds the front sight below the point where one hopes to strike the center.
I find dot driving more intuitive. I find I also like six o clock for not obscuring the target. However, since the Ruger is adjustable, I have converted it to dot drive as I am more accurate with that sight picture.
Tell me what sight pictures are supposed to be used for your handguns as I can't yet own or shoot everything.
