Is Ken Light still in business? All I get is a blank page.

Re: Rear sight options for Crosman 2300S

I too am in the aging eye category (as are most IHMSA shooters these days) tho I had cataract surgery a month and a half ago and WOW, what a difference. 20-15 in the left and 20-25 in the right. I don't own one of these guns so I can only speak in general. I did not get to handle it, but I've seen t...

Re: sight adapters legal for production

I've attached sight bases with just one screw on some .22 barrels to keep from doing mods, if that's any help. Stupid oddball spacing on TCs! Well DUH!!! (as I bang my head against the wall) Wow, those .22s really kick. I better put in 4 screws and sweat solder the front sight on. #-o And a double ...

Re: sight adapters legal for production

Adapters and sights must be unmodified commercial items. NO home made adapters!!! If there are multiple parts to an adapter I don't think you have to use all the parts. By this I mean the base of a commercial sight may be mated to the bottom of the Gehmann to make it fit your gun. Parts and pieces ...

Re: sight adapters legal for production

As long as the gun AND the adapter(s) are not modified, they are legal for Production. I have seen some legal guns that had two or more adapters used together to get some peep type sights fitted to Production guns. They sure looked funny but had not been modified to fit so they were legal. Thanks f...

sight adapters legal for production

Production rule: cannot modify gun and cannot modify sight. Is a custom made adapter legal since neither gun nor sight is being physically modified? Specifically looking for a 11mm dovetail base that will fit a Contender rear. Similar to a Unertl Posa mount. I've combed the web looking for a factory...

Re: Aperature sizes for "peep on peep"

Thanks for the input gentlemen. I'm machining an adapter to put a Gehmann 510 adjustable iris on the Izzy's rear and I'm still designing the front. I've naturally got to install the back first so I can calculate the front height. I also intend to set up a small bore Contender for Unlimited and utili...

Aperature sizes for "peep on peep"

I shot my first air pistol match at OKC this week. I did pretty well at UAS with my Morini (missed two which I shall put on first match jitters. If you miss anything you CANNOT blame THIS gun!). But, standing with my Izzy (factory sights) was abysmal. I am giving strong consideration to putting peep...
