Hello All
I shoot bullseye offten, all open sights only
But
I be been thinking ehy not to shoot with a 4 inch 38 special police fixed sight revolver and a 45 1911 mil spec fixed sights too
Jokes apart
I think HMaster scores from pre or post WW2 were shot like that
I try and research for historical information but little is available
I want to look for beyond Jim Clark and others era

Like 1920s 1930s and late 1940s

Anybody wishes to pitch in?

Cheers

My 1936 edition of Six-guns and Bullseye's by Reichenberg they talk about all the fixed sights that don't get the job done. It says, if the sights on your favorite gun are fixed and not adjustable, shooting won't be any fun and tempers will grow combustible......Pg 118
