Re: Why do folks not like the Buckhorn sights?
Nothing much wrong with them but given a choice I prefer something like a Williams Fool Proof. Even when I bought my Sheridan Blue Streak 20 caliber air rifle new many years ago I ordered it with the Williams site. My marlin .375 has one and so did my Savage 99-358 until I scoped it. The Henry BBS .44 and the pump .22 still have the stock sites.

Re: Why do folks not like the Buckhorn sights?
If your eyes can't adjust to the near rear sight and the far front sight, one or the other will be a blur. A good peep lets you look through the rear and even if its blurred, its blurred into a circle and the eye will still naturally find the center. I never put a peep on a rifle til I was in my 60s.
I'm very far-sighted and even with glasses that close in sight was a blur.
Buck horns are fine for the sharp eyed. (Lucky devils)
