I realize the majority says the longer barrel on your favorite pistol allows for a
more precise sight picture, and I understand the geometry just fine.
What I don't understand is why I, me personally, shoot a 4-inch barrel auto
pistol of the same make better at 25 yds or less than I do a 6 inch.
This applies to both 9mm and 45acp, although I
have much more 45 experience than 9mm.
I had an HK P9S 45 30 or more years ago, and I had much better bullseye scores with it than my heavily customized Gold Cup.
Recent experience was with CZ's and SAR's.
Might be eyesight? I am dominant left eye, dominant right hand, the scores years ago were one-handed, today, at 85, I shoot better two-handed.
