Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

I have a 1 point sling along with my 8 in longbow stock.
For close quarters, its the stock and the index finger.
for slightly farther distances, I punch the weapon out as far as the sling will let it go and aim down the stock sights.

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

I didnt read to see it its already posted but, I basicly line the tip of the barrel up with the front sight, ignore the back sight and fire away.

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

I got a car stock, and I dont like it... I like to use my bottle as my stock... it works perfectly for me and I even hit some people last game from about 60 feet away on the first or second shot... lucky maybe, but it was fun!

Yep, I use my bottle as my stock too. I tried my buddies A5 with a SAW stock, and it made my ears ring because they were right up against it. I aim down the side of my gun, with my eyes parallel with the barrel, and I usually hit the first time.

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

when you had your gun for a while you get to know how it shoots. With mt E gripped Flatlined A-5 I can look and get a pretty decent idea where my shots are going to land. From there its all about traversing to target like a good Machine Gunner

If I am for some reason shooting one of my older (neglected) Guns or my Back Up A-5 or the X-7. I set up a hasty range at home and set up my old relaible Adco Hotshot red dot at what I see as the farthest efefctive range of my Lapco. Use the red dot as an aim reference and adjust from there.

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

I made my front sight post into a passive fiber-optic arrangement, then yanked the rear sight out..so now I have a 'combat shotgun' - type arrangement....

It kinda looks like this if you were aiming up on something:




--TAG--

(PS - If anybody wants, PM me and I can tell you how I did the fiber-optic sight post part...I think I posted a thread on it in here a while ago...)

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

Tank on gun, center the barrel on your nose and between your eyes. Look down the barrel and don't waste valuable seconds aiming with the sights. Push the tank into your upper chest or arm for added support. Where you look is where you shoot at all times. At 15 balls per second, accuracy is the least of your worries.

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

Did you drill a small hole about 1/2 way through with the same diameter as the Fiber optic sight and then super glue it in? That's how I would do it anyway.

Re: how do you aim with your a5's?

I think it just becomes second nature after you shoot it a few times... but if i have to snipe someone ill use my iron sights... But I do use my middle finger instead of my pointer like you said
