The fastest shooters in the world use sights. "Point shooting" in a defensive shooting will get you killed. Train to use the sights and you will always use them, even if it's a rudimentary sight picture. It's been proven many times, that it takes no longer to line up sights, than it takes to make a conscious decision to pull a trigger. The good makers at S&W saw fit to put sights on that revolver. Not using them would be hard to justify in court if you miss and hit the wrong person, and these are things we have to always be cognoscente of. I trained LE for 40 years feel is always prudent to get that handgun between your face and the target because you can't miss fast enough to win a gunfight.
