Difference between External ballistics and Iron sights

External ballistics vs. Iron sights

External ballistics or exterior ballistics is the part of ballistics that deals with the behavior of a projectile in flight. Iron sights are a system of shaped alignment markers (usually metal) used as a sighting device to assist in the aiming of a device such as a firearm, crossbow, or telescope, and exclude the use of optics as in reflector (reflex) sights, holographic sights, and telescopic sights.

Similarities between External ballistics and Iron sights

External ballistics and Iron sights have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Elevation (ballistics), Gun barrel, Gunpowder, Projectile, Rifle, Trajectory, Wind.

Elevation (ballistics)

In ballistics, the elevation is the angle between the horizontal plane and the axial direction of the barrel of a gun, mortar or heavy artillery.
