But it works for my old eyes.
This plinking was done standing offhand @ 33 feet with my .20 cal.
on the first of december 2007.
The red dot is an old CopperHead one
mounted on the pistol with theBenjamin/Sheridan 4-Piece Intermount B272

If it works Rene it dosn't matter what it looks like, it's when you see two red dots, you've got problems. Laughing

There ya go! Two red dots on two guns welded together with a frame and pointing in different directions- so you're sure not to miss!

I think Rene probably stores this gun in a pizza box (big and square). Razz

I like it. Cool Have you run it over a chronograph?

Looks like very good penetration at 10m using a short barrel co2 pistol. Thumb Up!

With Rene's eyesight he need's a Braille Dot Sight. the he can pratice shooting his fingers off. Laughing
At least then he would know when he had hit the bull.

That's just bad. Mr. Green Aw.

I don't think it looks that bad though. Maybe you can add a wooden stock. Mr. Green

No I did not run it over a chronograph but it hits hard for a short barrel
and it loves the co2 about only 30 to 35 good shots out of one.
And the H9A .20 pumper does a real 440+ fps with 8 pumps.

By the way I prefer shooting without a stupid Red Dot Sight. Wink
God did not make pistol with a Red Dot, it is un-natural.

The shooting on that target was done with my H9A pumper.
Distance: 33 feet
Position: Standing holding the pistol with 2 hands
Number of shots: 5
Number of pumps: 6
Target: Aluminiun cat food can
Aiming at the buttom of the black circle
I think i did ok for a 60 year old with reading glasses +1.75% to see the front post on my pistol.

Hi Rene
I think you did OK without the red dot, Personaly I like them for short range out to about 20m, I have several red dots and a new Hawke 30mm for my B4 on order, I'm a bit like you, I can't see with out my glasses and trying to see the rear sight, front sight and the target using iron sights is getting difficult.
