One of the biggest complaints with these guns is you run out of elevation
on open sights. Especially if you're using a muzzle brake.
I am now
machining replacement front sight posts with a ready-to-finish length for
you to shorten yourself, or to whatever length you want.
The factory posts come in two lengths. The longer, more popular one measures
~0.355". This is measured from the top of the brake to the top of the post
(so, the exposed part of the post). Measurements on the even shorter one
coming soon.
Can be brass (for ease of cutting) or
stainless steel.
You can also order replacement
factory-length posts here, too.
The threads for all these are 6-32. They
fit the Crosman brakes and all my brakes and bands. Anywhere 6-32 is
accepted.
