I mentioned this in another post very recently. With these small frame, short barrel guns, its a good idea to practice using the whole gun’s symmetrical outline as the “sight”. Sounds crazy but if you assume a defensive posture and put the outline of the gun on target in such a way that the top of the outline is where you want the round to hit, you will surprise yourself with the "accuracy" you can attain. In the reflexive reaction to a threat, by practicing this, you will be able to hit center mass reliably and without the time delay in trying to acquire a sight picture (you won’t anyway). A BG charging you with a knife won’t allow you time to draw and put your sights on him. Get a silhouette target and give it a try.
