The 1911 is not a finesse weapon. It is not a one eye closed let’s play plink the target. It is built for close combat, a both eyes open and lead down range quick type weapon. Love it.
Back in the day, it used to gall me that fellow cops would go to the range and close one eye when firing a PPC qualification.
Since we know we react in real life out of our training, some of us would purpose to fire Both Eyes Open
I, for one, did not want to get into a combat situation where I missed something because I had an eye closed, or worse, have blurred vision when I later opened that closed eye.
Once you learn to pick up the correct sight picture with both eyes open, the range becomes a better place to be.
