I've been thinking a lot about this situation, and the issue of the sight being corrected now doesn't really address the bigger picture. The thing is, I haven't shot a gun without a scope in several years. My closeup vision has deteriorated significantly in that time, and I can no longer focus on mechanical sights without putting on reading glasses. I bought this gun for home defense though, and in an emergency, such as a noise in the middle of the night, glasses might not be an option. It seems that maybe I only have two possible solutions for this problem, given the overall context of how this gun will be used. The first would be to go to the range everyday for a month until I can hit the target accurately at 6-7 yards without using the sights. I have no difficulty focusing on the target itself. The second solution would be to install a laser sight, go to the range once, and leave the gun in the nightstand. Any advice on this?
