Competition Shooting with Rx glasses

I have a Sig 226 9MM and most of my shooting is from a distance of 21 feet.

When I ware glass that allow me to see the sights the target is always fuzzy… and if I wear glasses that allowed me to see the target the sights were blurry.

Afterthinking about this for a little while, I decide that I would buying a pair of1.25 reading glass from Walgreens pharmacy and see how they would work.

Wellnow I can see the sights 90% better and also see the target at 21 feet… now mygrouping is 3” for 25 shots @21 feet.

Ifyou are having a problem with wearing Rx Glasses, try going to a pharmacy… tryon a pair of reading glasses… hold out your hand and if you see the end of yourhand where the sight would be and you can see the back wall... then try them thenext time you shoot.

One last thing I have the Sig Night Sights by adding a little White Paint to the front sight also helped.

This worked for me and I hope it will helps other.
