My personal point shooting experience has been mixed.
Being involved in some competition shooting (2 years and going strong for IPSC), I tried both sighted and non-sighted shooting and here are some observations. For shooting man sized targets under 9 yards - and using a thumbs forward style grip - just point your thumbs to target and unload - I get 9 out of 10 in the target, 6 out of 10 in the Alpha.
For more precesion shooting and targets beyond 9 yards - I guess I have not trained enough of point shooting, because I cannot miss fast enough.
Transitioning between point shooting and sighted shooting is one of the skills I am trying to develop, and as echoed in some of the responses - multiple shooting skills are probably needed - not just one style -
After all if your loved one is being held hostage by a BG, are you really going to point shoot? Or use your sights? (If you really had to take him down....)
