Calibration for handgun grip angle.
This is my biggest and only beef at the moment. I shoot real guns a lot and basically you have three major angles of grips in handguns: The 1911, the Glock and the CZ angles.

So, by training if something's within 10 meters I only have to present my weapon and know I will hit because muscle memory kicks in for aligning sights. In AS, not so much.

I am used to the Glock angle and with my Oculus Touch the angle is waaaay off. Like 10-20° off.
Aligning sights also causes discomfort in the wrists because you have to overstretch them.

I know you can't and woun't create presets for all controllers and guns out there, but if you give the player a calibration room where they can set the angle themselves based on the weapon they're used to shoot, which will be close enough for the other weapons in the game as well, all's well.

I know this is a non-issue for people which never shoot firearms in the real world, but if you're a competition shooter or in law enforcement playing a lot will completely mess up you RL skill.

I contacted AS support directly, they're working on a fix.

Meanwhile you can use what their support liked me to:

I shoot a Glock 17 and -30° and lowering by -3 does the trick for me on the Rift S.
Now presenting the virtual gun delivers almost the sight picture I expect from muscle memory.

honestly you dont even have to shoot real guns to know its messed up. Trying to line stuff up in the sights just feels unnatural and feels like you are trying to do that stupid trick to tear the tendon in your thumb.
