What should be in focus?

The eye can focus clearly on only one object at a time. The front sight is your focal point which will make the rear sight and the target fuzzy, especially in dark and dim light when the pupil is wide open. Depth of field is more pronounced in a bright or sunlit environment when the pupil is smaller.
 
I got it figured out. For my 65 year old eyes I switched to a Red Dot Sight like the Burris Fast Fire III. You can get a mount for almost any gun.

Now I just find the dot, put it in the center of the target and I know I will hit it.

Give it a try.
 
Razor sharp front sight for groups, and for combat/competition at less than 7 yards, somewhere between the front sight and the threat/target. Of course a dot takes all the work out of it because it becomes target focused.
 
Yes, and thanks.

Thanks for all the thoughts and comments.
Yes, focus on the front sight and wear my prescription safety glasses (
that focus at arm's length) for my target shooting.
Focus on the front sight and wear my regular specs for practice with my CC weapon.
Live well, be safe
