    Help with revolver sights

    Hello all, I recently bought a Taurus Tracker (.44/2.5 inch), and I am trying to replace the front sight with a better one. The sights on this gun are unlike my other pinned sight revolvers, and more in line with a dovetail semiauto slide sight. Does anyone know the measurements of this factory...

    SKS front sight & barrel cuts

    The seller had no info on what happened to the front sight but there is a grove that looks like where it would sit but there is also another deep almost dremel like cut further up the barrel. I have no previous experience with SKS's yet alone repair but its a Norinco. I had hopes on fixing it...

    Optics Options

    I've been looking into getting a new optic for my AR-15, it currently has a Vortex Strike Fire Gen 1. My price range is about the same as a Holosun 510c. Which is one of the optics that I'm looking at getting, but I don't like the shake awake feature because it uses a lot of battery life. The...

    Thank you - a purchase observation - and a question

    Thank you for allowing me to join the forum. I am a totally new gun owner. (Unlike my husband) As such I am learning all kinds of things and look forward to learning more. First off - background - I am a former archer who due to advancing disability cannot shoot bow anymore. But I love target...

    Rock Island Armory: Rock Standard FS 1911

    I just picked up a Rock Island Armory Rock Standard FS 1911. Does anybody know if the sights are true Novak Style? Does anyone else have this gun, and what sights have you put on it? What other upgrades have you guys done to your Rock Standard FSs? I hate ambi safeties, so I ground down the...

    How many of you change your own sights?

    How many of you change your own sights? I mean specifically instead of taking the gun into a smith. Do you have a sight pusher, or just use a punch and hammer?

    Adding Sights To North American Arms Mini Revolvers

    I've been thinking lately, is it possible to add North American Arms Pug style sights to one of the other mini revolvers?

    Sights for a shotgun/rifle?

    Hey all, I have an older Remington 870 wing master from my dad. It is just a plain barrel with a bead sight at the end, not ribbed. The problem I’m having is the damn bead sight is so small and hard to see, plus this is just my personal opinion, but I don’t think the bead sight is a very good...

    Glock sights. Why the hate?

    I think one area most people agree on is that they despise the stock Glock sights. They call them plastic garbage and list them as one of the reasons that they hate Glocks, or one of the first things they change out. Admittedly, all of my Glocks have sight changes, except for the G19 MOS...

    Sig 229 shoots low - what can help?

    Disclaimer: I'm no marksman, but I group where I aim on most days. I consistently group my 40cal. 229 about 6 inches low at 30 feet. My 1911 and friend's Glock are right where they needed to be, but that beautiful Sig just couldn't deliver. My front/rear sights are #6/#8 respectively (as they...

    Red Dot, Reflex, See All Sight, or what for Chiappa Double Badger

    For awhile I've been wanting an opportunity gun (as in a trunk gun, to carry when scouting, for a day walk in the field, and for backpacking), so I pulled the trigger on the Chiappa Double Badger in .22 WMR / .410. I'd considered similar guns, but the Chiappa is much more packable. There's much...

    NCStar VISM Flip Up Dot on G19

    It's been a while since I posted anything, about 2 months ago I pulled the trigger so to speak on my first Glock, a G19, and before I even shot it once, I bought an aftermarket slide with a RMR cutout, so I can install small micro dot. Specifically I'd been intrigues by the NCStar VISM Flip-Up...

    Carlson Bead Size

    Hello all I've recently been afflicted with a coyote problem and have been using a 12 gauge 870 wingmaster with a Carlson barrel. The problem is the sight that came with it is red fiber optic and I'm planning on switching to tritium. I already tried a meprolight 870 sight bead and thread was too...

    Sights for old eyes?

    So I've turned 50 and for the last few years I've been having more problems with my iron sights. Presbyopia has kicked in. I can either wear my cheater glasses and focus on the sights, or take them off and focus on the target, but the sights are blurry. In either case, my accuracy is...

    What should I do?

    So I just installed this new handguard on my AR. Before, I had a drop in quad rail which I had that front sight attached to. Now, I have a small picatinny segment attached to this handguard and the sight on that. What I found when I tried to get it dialed in today is that the front sight...

    Star BM front sight improvement

    I’ve started to read some of the threads on the Star BM especially sights. I recently got one and think it’s a great shooter, but with several isssues many people point out, the sights for me being most problematic. There’s some good information for the rear sight, less for the front, so I...

    Anyone use a red dot for edc?

    I have a Burris Fast Fire on my M&P Core and it makes for much more accurate shooting at least for me. I have the start of cataracts and wear trifocals so the red dot is great. My question is does anyone use a red dot on their edc, how long do the batteries last if you keep it on? I have to turn...
