Shooting a handgun well requires learning two basic skills, and then coordinating the two. The two skills are trigger control and sight alignment. Generally it takes thousands of repetitions to learn a physical skill. In the case of trigger control I’d say it takes hundreds of thousands of repetitions to get really good. Fortunately it can be done by dry-fire which costs nothing but time. Other than a good quality, consistent trigger there really isn’t any technology at present to replace hard work and repetition in learning trigger control.

Sight alignment in some ways can be more difficult to learn, especially when we are trying to balance speed and accuracy. The sight picture for a five-yard shot is very different from the sight picture for a precision 50-yard shot. We need to learn to recognize an acceptable sight picture, which varies constantly as the difficulty of the shot changes. It’s human nature to look for tools and technology to make things easier.
But there are tools to make the difficult task of “sight picture” easier. Years of competition — and now, years of practical experience — have conclusively shown the superiority of red dot sights over iron sights. I’m not saying a good shooter using iron sights can’t beat an average shooter using dot sights. Certainly he can, and once in a while he can even beat a shooter of equal skill. But dot sights are better and faster.
