Making a peep sight

(1/3) > >>

Eric Krewson:
I can't see sights anymore so I tried copying a peep made and sold by Lowell Harrier, I thought it would be a piece of cake, not so.

Here is Lowell's;



My first one was too far from my eye.



My second one was too sloppy;



My third one came out OK after hours of trying to bend everything so my sights would be perfectly lined up when I shouldered the gun and looked through the peep. Of course I will file a nice round finial around the aperture, round and slick the whole thing up then brown it. My sights are fairly clear when I look through the peep.

Hawkdancer:
Looks good to me!  I seem to have that same sight problem, as in seeing the darn things!

chamookman:
Nice  :-M ! Bob

Trapper Rob:
That's something I'll have to look into I have a problem seeing my sights also

Eric Krewson:
This one actually works, it is the one posted above with all the extra metal, I still have some filing, sanding and rust browning to do.
