    Air pistols can only have iron sights

    Gee, maybe that’s why she’s wearing those crazy glasses in the picture…

      It’s already been explained that the glasses cannot have magnification, so what advantage do you think they offer when looking through iron sights?

        And also that theyre prescription…

        And 20/20 isn’t “perfect” vision, it’s perfectly average.

        So someone can get glasses to improve their vision (especially at a certain distance) to better than 20/20 and have an advantage.

        While still not having magnification.

        Do you think glasses that help you see further are working via magnification?

          The point is that there’s nothing further to see beyond a tiny solid black dot.

              I know what you said intuitively sounds like it makes sense, but I’d encourage you to try a shooting sport in person if you’re really interested in the subject.

                I’m one generation away from subsistence hunting…

                I had “my own” shotgun before I was born…

                I know about guns bruh. Having better vision is an advantage in shooting.

                It’s not rocket appliance
