One of the better videos on this subject, especially the last part about using an offset sight system. While originally used primarily in Open 3-gun, it is very well suited to home/personal defense situations!
Wish people would understand more about how effective peep/ghost ring sights are though. Quick to use, and takes very little practice to hit your target out to 300 yards, a bit more practice to hit out to 600 or even further, but then any sight takes some practice to use well!! 🙂
