I have an original and while it looks great, I'm not convinced it shoots any more accurately than a standard HW45 used in the conventional manner. That's because the rearsight is almost next to your eye and can be very hard to line up with the foresight.

The larger foresight the stock also came with is essential in my view as it helps with sight acquisition in view of the sights being that much closer to your eye. You could fit an optic I suppose but I prefer the clean lines of an open sighted HW45.
