Aperture

Quote:
So, I changed my sights to an aperture rear sight with the blade front sight. The firearm is an Hi Point C9 and the sights came with the gun along with standard blade and notch sights.
Yeah...the problem with aperture sights on a handgun is exactly as you describe because apertures work best when they are close to the eye. That is why the Merit optical disc works so nicely.
There is also an adjustable iris device from Gehmann that clips on your eyeglass frame (from Champions Choice).
And there are the full on adjustable shooting frames (not protective glasses) that some very serious target shooters use...from Champions Choice and Knobloch.
A lower cost device is Lyman's Shooters Optic Aid..http://www.champchoice.com/detail.aspx?ID=2887.
