� Focus on the front sight -- make it the center of your attention, irrespective of how blurry the rear sight and the target become. Concentrate on it and get to know it completely.
� Train yourself to distinguish between the exact middle, the left corner, and the right corner of the front-sight blade. IOW, see the top of the front sight as a width, not a "point."
� Practice holding the top of the front sight 1/4, 1/2, 3/4. and all its height above the top of the rear sight, and you'll be both surprised and gratified to see how accurately you can shoot even a four-incher at longer ranges than a handgun is supposed to be good for.
� Master shooting with issue sights (especially with sighted-in adjustable sights but even with fixed sights if that's what you have), before you mess around with a scope on a handgun. A scope is not as helpful or useful for eliminating the need for skill with open iron sights, as green handgunners think it is. You won't even get all the benefit of the scope if you haven't first mastered the use of the iron sights.
