Really good reading material for someone intent on teaching someone to shoot well from scratch. Also good for directing people away from bad habits that most people develope over time. If you can find the DM (designated marksman) or sniper TMs, there's even better shit. You also have to keep in mind when reading these training manuals that they're meant to teach, vocabulary wise, at roughly a 5th grade level (no joke).

Funny thing is I am a poor ass shot with peep sights compared to old style V notch. I shot so much better with my AK or 84 year old Mauser than my AR. I know its supposed to make you a better shot but I hate the damned things.
For the longest time, I hated peep sights, but after a shitload of time shooting through peep sights, I came to prefer them. Nowadays I shoot better with peep sights than anything else.
IM thinking of picking up a couple of those crosshair frotn sights for my FAL and AR to make it easier. The only peep sight gun that I do well with is my MAS 36
