raised iron sights

Modern scopes are taking over the world of firearms, but the old reliable iron sights still hold a special place in many shooters' hearts. The year was 2017, and I had just picked up my trusty sidearm - a compact pistol with a short barrel that felt perfect in my hand. As I looked down at the gun, I noticed something peculiar about its design: it didn't have any of those fancy scopes or red dots that everyone's been raving about lately. No, this was an old-school iron-sighted affair, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia wash over me. The metal felt cool to the touch, and the windage adjustment on the rear sight seemed to be just right - not too loose, not too tight. It was as if the gun had been crafted specifically for this one job: putting holes in paper targets at 25 yards. I raised the pistol to my shoulder, took a deep breath, and squeezed the trigger. The shot rang out, echoing off the nearby trees, and I watched with satisfaction as the bullet hit its mark dead center. It was a beautiful thing, and for that moment, nothing else mattered.
