Something like these for rear and front: http://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/Mendoza_Micrometer_Sight_11mm_Dovetail/2004 http://www.pyramydair.com/s/a/AirForce_Front_Target_Sight_Fits_Most_10-Meter_3-Position_Rifles/2238   Posted: Sat Jul 11, 2009 9:35 am Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA I have the diopter version (rear), and it's nice and solid. You will need a dovetail arrangement for both the front and rear sights that you listed. That means either a replacement breech (with dovetail) or intermount for the rear, and either an intermount or brake (with dovetail) for the front. Yourdaddyjoe would probably have some good suggestions. An "intermount" clamps to the barrel: http://www.crosman.com/airguns/accessories/optics/rings I modified my rear Mendoza diopter a little: http://www.airgunhome.com/agforum/viewtopic.php?t=2396&start=0 _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Sat Jul 11, 2009 11:47 pm Crabapple Complex Member Joined: 05 Jul 2009 Posts: 18 Cool. Thanks! I really like open sights, but the stock plastic ones you mostly see around suck.   Posted: Sun Jul 12, 2009 12:03 am Slavia Moderator Joined: 31 Mar 2008 Posts: 4382 Location: Waseca, Minnesota, USA That would be the bolt-on approach. It's also possible to make your own stuff: _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!
