How to Shoot With a Peep Sight

Peep sights -- also know as aperture sights -- feature a small, hollow ring mounted at the rear of a firearm. The eye tends to naturally center the front sight in the center of an aperture. The shooter only has to look "though" the peep sight, and simultaneously center the front sight on the target.

Instructions

    • 1

      Look though the peep sight. Do not try to focus your eye on the peep sight itself; allow it to remain out of focus.

    • 2

      Locate the front sight while looking through the blurry, rear peep-sight. Do not attempt to consciously center the front sight in the rear peep-sight.

    • 3

      Place the front sight on the target, and fire.
