The key to survival in a potentially deadly situation is preparation. A famous quote I like to use is “having a gun and thinking you are armed is like buying a piano and thinking you are a musician.” The real preparation is having all the proper equipment and knowing how to use it, in any situation. A great way to get the tactical edge is investing in a product like the AmeriGlo night sights. These AmeriGlo pro night sights are designed to make your sights effective in even the lowest of lighting conditions. Night sights can make any firearm tactical in a matter of moments, with a price tag of around seventy dollars for front and rear sights.
Aside from relying your safety and the safety of your loved ones on a piece of equipment is just plain naive. The worlds best and most précis shooters didn’t get their by their looks, I can assure you that. One of the most useful techniques taught is the art of “Point Shooting” which is basically knowing where you are hitting without looking at your sights. Statistically you are most likely to be in a firearm attack at night, and within ten meters, so making this technique an instinct is essential.
The “Point Shooting” is not just shooting from the hip; it’s a fine tuning of body position and experience. The key to this principal is reflexive fire, which allows you not to look at the sights, and waste precious time, instead to expel a large amount of precision shots. This method is ideal for police and military training; since you have the ability to take out multiple targets in the time it would take most shooters to make their first shot. These courses are generally given to law enforcement and concealed carry permit owners.
The AmeriGlo night sights are still a fine addition to any firearm, they are sure to add value to the firearm. Of course in addition to practice and technique, you are sure to be more prepared than the average criminal element. Many new surges of criminal activity still haunt society, a new threat that is particularly coming from the south west, is the “mob rob tactic,” this tactic is when a large group of criminals use their large numbers to prey on unsuspecting citizens.
With the right training and tools for the job we are sure that any criminal tactics will be foiled by a properly trained individual. I sincerely hope these techniques never have to be used in a worst case scenario, but I encourage all shooters to be well versed in these skills and make sure to look for warning signs, and never become the aggressor or primitively strike. A good thing to note is the normal wrongful death case cost around two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and in most cases criminals families are always taking advantage of this fact, so insure that you can prove lethal force was the last resort, as well as your attempts to try other things before elevating the scenario.
