Since someone mentioned Applegate, and since we have some experienced people here, I'd like to ask if there's any consensus regarding the effectiveness of the type of point shooting that he demonstrated, where the arm is brought up higher and the firearm is just under your line of sight to the target. It seems quite different than the hipshooting or low crouch style, and I would think it might really suit a longer barrelled K frame or the like (unfortunately, I don't have a revolver at this time). I ask, because now that I wear bifocals (the small front sight on my Browning is right at the awkward point for my glasses), and don't get to shoot very often, I suspect that I would have little luck using the sights in a defensive situation. It's mostly academic: I live in a very low crime area, and in an old building with very thin walls between the flats, so I don't even keep the pistol loaded (I'd reach for the Ka-Bar!), but I imagine a lot of people are in the same boat eye-wise.
