I was just wondering how many of you test/care about the point of aim of a new handgun?
In the case that you have no idea what I'm talking about, I'll explain it. Take out your gun, UNLOAD IT, point it at an object on the wall/ceiling/floor, now close your eyes and move the weapon around a little bit and get a good point of aim (just naturally point the weapon) in the general area of the object you were pointing at, now open your eyes and notice how much movement is required to have a proper sight alignment. It doesn't matter if your on target or not, just properly line up the sights and remember how much you have to move the weapon.
Now do the same test with another handgun of a different size and style, I'm almost certain that it'll be different.
In my opinion, the more natural the point of aim is, the inherently more accurate the weapon will be. That's my opinion anyway.
