does anybody use this gun aiming techinque, has it got a name

[raaaid]

when i was 12 i bought a couple bb guns i learnt naturally the best way of aiming though thank god dindt kill any birds:

lokk to the far objective with BOTH EYES, see the barrel double and make it perfect simetric with the objective in the center, hit of 0.2 mm target at 5 m

does this have a name?

Yes, it is called the raaaid method now.

Its called the wrong way to shoot, pure and simple.

There are times and circumstances where shooting with both eyes open is appropriate, but what you describe isn't one of them.

right handed... use the right side of the two images.. left handed, use the left.

laser sighting... line up the dot and shoot

Dear raaaaaid, I am now worried!

As you have now told us you did this when you were younger, it is now history.

You tell us you were accurate?

If Luthier reads this thread and sees that this method can now be seen as Historically Accurate, I would fully expect to see this in the next patch

[raaaid]

well this method is not only highly precise but also ultrafast and just natural, as a primitive who would use a bow

problem with this is you need a low level of binocular rivalry, that is being easily able to see double with fussion of images

just try it aim your finger like a gun and aim by seeing double can you do it?

If you're bi-polar, Raaaid's concept, can be visualized.
Same concept as closing one eye when using binoculars.
It just depends on the point of view, you wanna take.

Sorta like riding a motorcycle, with your mouth open.
Some folks just have a taste for it. Other folks are just
tight lipped about it.

Raaaid just see's things through a rolling kaleidoscope.

[raaaid]

well that aiming technique is identical to wacthing a stereogram:



in this stereoimage you can see how the brain overimposes images that are not optically overimpsable like this and this \ /

the reason cause nobody can do what i do is that i see two guns while you probably see a useless fior aiming 3d image

in fact this aiming techinque allows to verify you tube is stereosocopic

use the aiming techinque to see the image double and wait for your brain to blend the images from two to a n stereo composition, the less you see them double the easier

Dude, no, its not.
Your method is neither precise or accurate.


Instinctual shooting does work, but only after much practice and only at shorter distances.

Since your not a shooter Ill just tell you that just because you think you are pointing at something (hey look, Im pointing my finger at that target!) doesn't mean the bullet is pointing at the same thing.

YOUR WEAPON HAS SIGHTS FOR A REASON.
