Took the wife shopping for a new activewear carry piece for her. After getting her hands on a Shield, G43, P239 (way too heavy, LOL), and we finally settled on a 380 Bodyguard. Pleasantly surprised to find there's a $50 rebate for the Bodyguard.
We take it to the range along with a decent selection of other pistols, set up a target 15ft from the bench.
Now, I am not the best shot in the world. I can expect 4-6" groups at that range with my G30SF during casual shooting. On good days I'll have 3" groups.
I. Couldn't. Hit. The. Target. with the Bodyguard. Completely missing the paper. Standing, offhand shots.
My wife didn't have this issue, she still managed to get holes into the paper but was having difficulty with the long trigger pull and making it work with her grip. That's something to improve on but at least she was hitting paper.
My ego didn't allow it to be an operator error. Inspecting the pistol, the rear sights are slightly left of center, and the front sight is the same. Aha! Found my problem. Make adjustments in my sight picture. Right?
Nope. Still can't hit anything.
By the end of the trip my wife was getting decent groups on target with the Bodyguard and I was still whiffing every shot.
In the long run I suppose this doesn't matter because that's her pistol and she's the one that needs to shoot it well. I've just never had this happen.
