....but Oh Dear.... that homemade sight - did you say 'Heath Robinson'? More like 'Anne Robinson': and definitely the Weakest Link!

I do think function and form dictate a solution should be pretty, otherwise i'd be making something out of an old sardine can and gaffer-taping it on!
I must admit I tend to agree. The sight is a substantial unit and stays put but...I removed it after testing it on the Bisley range as it just looked so 'home made'. It did place 4 out of 5 shots through a bell target free standing at 6 yards though. Come to think of it, the rifle is capable of equally good accuracy with the original open sights too!
