Hi all, I've got a mini-14 ranch rifle that I've mounted a scope on. I'm not really a scope guy though and want to go back to an iron site, peep type. The only one I can find for the ranch gun is the williams guide site. Does anyone have an opinion on this site? How about a front site to go with it? I'm considering the Eagle site/flash hider with the HK ring site. I like the idea of two rings and a post. I have that setup on a single shot target 22 and it works great. Any opinions or experience with that set-up? Are there any other peep type rear site for the mini ranch? I'm also planning to add a hogue stock, opinions on that? Don't give me any 'sell it and get an AR' stuff, I already have one of those. |
| I used to have a standard Mini-14 that I installed one of those Eagle flash hiders w/ HK style front sight.. I mainly wanted it for the sight, as the standard post on the Mini is about the size of a 2x4!!! It worked very well, and actually improved my shooting.. It turned what was once SHOTGUN patterns of 10" or more inches.. into nice 4" 5-shot groups.. This was with Q3131. Not bad for a Mini.. The "flash hider" part didn't really work very well, but improved the look of the rifle. Try one, you'll like it. ;) |

As far as the H+K front sight, some folks cut off the top of the protecting ring. They claim it improves acquisition speed and sight picture. Enough folks have commented on this modification that there may be something to it.
