Red Dot Sights?
Re: Red Dot Sights?
Ive tried the bright white paint trick. It works ok but I think if I was to do anything with a front sight I might pick up one of the Ranger Point front sights in fiber optic and give one a try.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Red Dot Sights?
Sorry, when I hear red dot sights, I think of this.

Re: Red Dot Sights?
Well I was off to the range today with the H001TRP and a bag full of targets. It took one and a half turns to move the POI to the bullseye at 25 yards. I then put a new target on the cardboard and moved it to 50 yards. The application of bright white paint worked perfectly as far as vision and elimination of seeing 2 front sight beads. However, the bead covered most of the target. The target was an 8 inch circle and the majority of shots were in the 4 inch center of the target shot at 50 yards. I wasn't satisfied with the accuracy today and don't see any way to adjust or fine tune the Skinner Sight any further. I have another Romeo5 and will need to plug the Skinner receiver holes and order another DIP Inc rail. Not a happy camper.

Called Henry Customer Service yesterday and asked if a blade type front sight was available to replace the brass bead front sight. Not available for the H001TRP. DIP Inc rail ordered. As usual Henry's Customer Service was outstanding, best in the business!

Re: Red Dot Sights?
Thanks BigAl52. I think I'll go the Red Dot route as soon as I receive the filler screws from Henry. My eyes were happy with the Red Dot on the H001L carbine. Off to the range today to fine tune it. Results so far have been very promising and my eyes are happy with the smallest dot.

Re: Red Dot Sights?
I just added a Vortex Viper to my CZ P10F pistol and really like it. It is a very high quality optic with unconditional lifetime warranty, at its lowest price yet on Amazon. ... https://www.amazon.com/Vortex-Optics-V ... B00S2P2LXO
It comes with a picatinny rail mount, or it can be installed directly on an “optics ready” pistol slide adapter plate like in the attached pic. It would work dandy on a short range rifle. It has a 6 MOA dot, so that would cover a lot of a bullseye at 50 yards or more. For more precision from a rifle, a smaller dot would be better, at the expense of acquisition time. As my eyes get more and more decrepit, I am putting optics on everything.....

How can I mount a red dot on my H001T? It just has grooves for scope mounts.
