I'm not clear on how one trains not to be briefly blinded by the hellacious muzzle and cylinder-gap fireball of a full-house .357 Magnum fired in darkness, especially from a short barrel. I'd be interested to know, because when I referred to that problem in another thread months ago an LEO described concern about being partially blinded by the flash from 9mm service pistols in night training.
I can't shoot magnum loads anymore due to arthritis; but when I did, shooting them in low light worried me about how it would be in full darkness. I'm more concerned now that my eyes are nearer eighty than seventy years of age and adjust much more slowly. Maybe it's just a young man thing...
