it's only 4-" high at 50 yds, and you can aim at the head, hit guts at 150yds. At the sub 10m shooting that covers 99.99% of civilian defense, the POI wont be far enough off POA to mean a thing. In fact, you will MISS the 10" chest, more often than you will hit it, at 10m, when you are being shot-at, using a pistol, anyway.
