 There is some criticism of the pistol's elevated plane of sight, blaming it on an incorrect notion that the designer could not aim his pistol.However, Margolin's raised plane of sight is a deliberate design feature that increased the accuracy of the pistol.The bridge that made the rear sight stationary combined with the unusually high sights allows the shooter to hold the pistol lower and aligns barrel with the shoulder, giving the shooter an improvement in control in rapid fire competition.
