Title: tri-vis sights
Post by: jackelope on March 12, 2008, 10:06:46 PM: anybody have one of these setups on your turkey gun?
i just put this on my gun and am anxious to see how it works. the only thing i wonder is how long till the rear sight gets broken off. it's kinda big.

Put the bead on the target and pull the trigger. I guess it depends if you shoot with both eyes or closed an eye.

I bought one about 6 years ago because my Moss 835 literally patterned about 1' high and right w/ turkey loads. My intention wasn't to actually buy this particular site. However, at the time it was the only 1 I could get on short notice that allowed for elevation & windage adjustment. I was kinda in a bind and really didn't want to buy it. I figured that damn hood thing would get in the way or break off or sumthin. Well, as it turns out I love the silly thing. I would put the same site on my next turkey gun. I end up needing to put a little super glue on some of the pieces to secure em. Not sure if that's a design flaw or just how it fits my gun. :tup:
