I replaced the plastic front sight with a metal one I found on the web, I also added a skinner peep sight. The gun is flawless never a problem with it shoots like a dream.

Kinda like to use a 2-7x32 on it. But that's better than nothing. Never have use a red dot, is there a decent one that you can shoot 35-40 yards for coon calling?

Kept it in the truck during spring and fall trapping. Always was accurate and the only issue was it rusted but some gunsmith's wipes cleaned it up quickly. I was running it up until this year when I "inherited" a Rossi pump action from the 70s from an uncle and that's my favorite gun.

Never have use a red dot, is there a decent one that you can shoot 35-40 yards for coon calling? most any are good for 35-40 yards I have a sig romeo 5 the wife got me for christmas it offers a low mount option you will probably need to take the mount and gun to a store and see what works big enough window , small enough mount the open type like the Vortex venom are smaller , lighter and easier to see through but also can be an issue with rain getting in the emitter most offer a 2moa dot option the dot would be 2 inches at 100 yards so if you have a target that is small you end up covering it with the dot but at 25 it would appear a half inch and at 50 yards 1 inch America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
