    What do you use to get a good sight picture?

    What do you use to get a good sight picture? I just moved to a Classic mag from a Pro/Carb I Like the pistol feel of the mag however; I am not fond of sighting down the barrel. With the standard sights on my pro/carb I could quickly get a sight picture with out tonal vision. What do you do?
    Peace :)

    I point my mag in the direction of someone on the other side and watch where the balls hit I adjust from there.

        my two cents...

        Gotta go with the Armson Red Dot Sights, they work great and dont restrict your vision to much since you sight with two eyes, plus it dosn't need any batterys to replace since it works of natural light.

        I'd say its better to have a sight when you need to take that first shot perfectly or else you wont get the opportunity again.Using a sight you can suprizes the other guy with one well placed shot rather than laying down a wall of paint.

        The only disadvantage to having a sight is the extra weight and a slightly larger gun profile.

        I always use my sight.

            after you play enough with your setup, you just kinda know where you're shooting...

                I try not to aim.

                When you practice snapshooting enough, you sorta learn where you need to point your marker, depending on how far away they are. Eventually it just becomes instictive to aim right. Whenever im out long enough to aim, i usually have a whole lotta paint flying at my head...

                Thats one thing i dont like about sights, they dont adjust by themselves for distance. I just dont think Paintball Markers are accurate enough to use sights.

                Just practice snapshooting, eventually you will get a good feel for your mag.

                  i don't get the whole sight thing. Paintballs arn't that accurate anyway. Just adjust where you see the balls going. Just shoot people. Just let you eyes follow the balls and your hands will adjust automatically to aim closely. It's really pretty simple.

                  My girlfriend rides a moped. How cool is that??!!

                    I was just talking about a dot sight, no magnification if thats what you mean.

                    I guess its just me but I like to know exactly where my paints going to fly. And most of the time its right on the money. It comes in handy when your in close bunker combat, especially when your pinned down.

                    I line up my sight where hes going to be before I come out. When I come out at a diffrent angle in the bunker already lined up on him, it makes it that much easier for that 1 shot = 1 splat on the goggles kill.

                      When you play for a year(or less) you learn exactly where you wanna paint. Just play alot you don't need a sight, you will depend on it to much."Use the force Luke"
