In this video we show the actual process of adjusting the primative fixed sights on Colt cap & Ball revolvers so they hit the point of aim.

This is the missing footage from the Pietta sight-in video

BDM,
Good job on the hammer sight and the shooting. I'm afraid I would have to use a rest to sight mine in. Don't ask me why.
Thanks for the video, I look forward to watching them. Always very educational.

I don't know why, but 9 times out of 10, I can shoot a handgun better with a two hand hold than I can from a rest.

Rifles are a different story...

BDM,
I don't know, from what I've seen of your shooting you don't need a rest for handguns or rifles.
