Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I put a Picatinny rail on it and topped it off with a Vortex Spark II red dot sight. I finally got it sighted in and it now shoots 4 inch groups at 100 yards for me. I'm certain, with more range time I can tighten that up

Was lookin at the spark recently. IIRC, the dot subtends 3 m.o.a....
....which is kinda big for 100 yds. Wish someone would resurrect the old Lee Dot for for these electronic sights. They made them as small as 1/16 m.o.a....

I've got a 4 reticle Bushnell Trophy red dot here that gets used a lot on air pistols. Smallest dot on it is the same 3 m.o.a.

Nice gun though! Have you shot it with the factory peep?

Regards,

Doc Sharptail

mine is belgian import , one of only a few that came here in a really tiny window as a 308 match ,

put an aimpoint on mine - the dot is smaller but still only good at closer ranges or at bigger targets

i outfitted it with a 22cal conversion from a group buy on the FAL site a number of years back , it runs flawlessly ,

Haven't seen a gun metal aimpoint in a while now. Probly go good with clean Parkerized :bigrin:

Thanks for posting those. Is Herstal Group still a viable operation? There were rumours of them foundering a while back...
