Visirlinje
Visirlinje är för eldvapen en tänkt linje mellan sikte och korn. I bakre ändan av visirlinjen placerar skytten sitt öga och i andra änden skall riktpunkten befinna sig.
Visirlinjens längd har stor betydelse för hur lätt eller svårt det är att sikta med vapnet. En kort visirlinje gör det svårare och känsligare att sikta än en lång visirlinje.

The rotating drum sight apertures on Heckler & Koch sub machine guns have various diameter apertures to optimize the sight line for various ambient light conditions. The theory of operation behind the aperture sight is often stated that the human eye will automatically center the front sight when looking through the rear aperture, thus ensuring accuracy. An additional benefit to aperture sights is that smaller apertures provide greater depth of field, making the target less blurry when focusing on the front sight.
