I want to know how that's done.
This isn't relevant to shooting with both eyes open. It is relevant for aiming a gun with front and rear sights.I seen things referring to 'Front Sight' among others.
How do you aim?
What if you have a dominant eye?
It also adds for a better field of view. With one eye closed you are basically blind to one side. Therefor it's good to practice with both eyes open for defensive shooting. However, it is usually easier to score better on targets with only 1 eye open. So for me, for leagues it's one eye open, for other practice it's two eyes open.Shooting with two eyes open allows for better balance and orientation while holding the Firearm.
Simular to training a dog. Stay consistant, practice and let the mind program itself for what you want done. To a certain degree, you can tell a shooters dominant eye by obseving which one is squinting. With very little time, it wil be second nature. Regardless of what I'm shooting, I keep both eyes open even though, my left eye seems to always be squinting. I think this comes from my instinctive style of archery shooting. ....I learned to use both eyes initially by squinting my left eye.

Hey Sport45, are you dominant in one eye or eye neutral (is that possible???)
I don't know. But sitting here at the desk I can hold a pencil at arm's length and focus on the eraser "aiming" at the doorknob across the hall. I see two doorknobs and they both look about the same. The eraser is under the one on the right.
