If ya qualify for the SASS age-based categories, the BH sights are easier to see,and easier to adjust than adjusting ammo to POA like we do with a Vaq. But if ya want a more or less traditional, bullet proof shooter with no sights that can get broke, the vaq is a great shooter. It also qualifies in ALL cartridge categories, (at least if ya get a .45) where the Bh won't.
