New TruGlo sights on the Pump

Post by retAFShooter » Tue Jul 26, 2016 7:08 am

I took the Henry Pump Action out to the range this morning. With the new TruGlo Fiber Optic sights installed. At 25 yards it was real good for me. At 50 the spread opened up more but that was the shooters fault. I forgot to wear my pinhole aperture patch. Here is the video of the 25 yard before and after some adjustments. Here's the video:

Great POIs after sight adjusts, retAF!
Did you keep the stock front bead intact?
What ammo brand did you use today?
Thanks for the range post.

I like the idea of the pump more and more and those sights look great. How easy were they to install and zero in?

They were very easy to install and to zero.

I'm a big fan of TruGlo products .... we have used their "TRU•POINT™ WING AND CLAY" shotgun sight on our Remington 11-87 for something over 5 years ====> http://www.truglo.com/firearms-wing-sho ... 8A38F256EC <==== we have found that it really helps when shooting skeet/trap ....

Nice shooting! ;)

I would like to get something like that for my PA. It's wearing a scope at the moment, but it would be nice to be able to use open sights. "Normal" iron sights are a no-no for me, but I think the fiber optic might be the answer.

Does anybody know if the front and rear dovetails are the same as the Marlin or Ruger or Winchester, or if any TruGlo sights for these guns will be OK for a Henry? As per usual, Henry replacements/spares don't exist here! :(

There won't be a safe place for a rabbit to hide around you now. Good shooting.
