Firearms Training and Vision Challenges

The episode of Student of the Gun Radio discussed upcoming events, including National Hug Your AK Day on October 18th, and highlighted the importance of vision issues in firearms training.

The hosts shared their recent experiences in Texas, where they encountered challenges related to students' sightedness, emphasizing the need for proper eye protection and clear vision during training.

They also mentioned an interview with Michael Schwartz of Gun Owners Radio about California's gun control measures and encouraged listeners to participate in upcoming events and discussions.

Vision Solution for Shooters

The group discussed a vision-related challenge faced by some students who have had corrective eye surgery, resulting in inconsistent shooting accuracy.

Jarrad and the professor explored the concept of using an occluded eye gun sight, similar to the OEG technology used by Special Forces during the Vietnam War, to potentially help these students.

They hypothesized that covering the red dot sight on a pistol and using both eyes could improve target acquisition for individuals with different vision prescriptions.

The professor committed to testing this hypothesis using the scientific method, starting with background research and moving to testing and analysis, with the goal of developing a solution for handgun shooters with vision issues.
