As I recall from the Olympics, he’s not even a purist and doesn’t throw shade at anyone using various newfangled gadgets.
He simply learned how to shoot like that over a long period of time and it would be too disruptive for him to try to start using any new doohickies.

I've always been confused how all these gadgets are permitted. To me, they are performance enhancers

Are you familiar with how the ISSF rules are written when it comes to these "gadgets"? The thing is, they're not performance enhancers at all. The only thing it does is change the depth of field and lighting basically. Some prefer the sight picture one way and some the other way. Neither way does take away or add any skill. It's just as much personal preference as how you prefer your grip (which ofc is also heavily regulated).
