Can't say you don't have fun shooting.
I've got 2 of the one 3 on mine....I love it too!
Its what I live for anymore.....I've just about given up all other hobbies.
I don't know if I missed your video on the aiming of the GPR but would be interested if you did anything to the front sight or the buckhorn sight. I got the smaller version of the buckhorn sight along with the installed bigger version, with the GPR. I am using the bigger version and align the front with the notch in the back. Did you try both?
Currently...the front and the buckhorn sights are still on the gun. I've featured it in 5 videos so far ( 2 of them hasn't been posted yet ) and haven't sat down and sighted it in yet. No filing or any adjustments yet. I can hit targets much better with the buckhorn sights, so, I don't see it coming off the gun anytime soon. I'll post the 2 remaining fun videos in a few weeks. Thanks for asking.
Although I really liked the buckhorn rear sight on my GPR cap lock, it wouldn't hold zero and thus, replaced it with the primitive sight. As I think I shot much better with the buckhorn, I'm going to give serious thought to replacing it and using a drop of cyanoacrylic glue to anchor the elevation in place once I re-sight it.
Let us know what you think after you try it out....
BP MS, I'm sorry to say, there's bad news and some OK news on the Investarms buckhorn sight. In searching for that sight, I found another Investarms primitive sight, which is OK, but not what I wanted. The bad news is that I threw the buckhorn sight away after replacing it with a primitive sight since it wouldn't hold zero. Was that stupid or what?
Yikes??? !!! ???
Hmmm.....Lymans would probably sell you another one reasonable.....if you think it would help your performance....
If you still had it, I would have traded sights with you in a heart beat.

I did not like the adjustable sight so I put the semi buckhorn fixed primitive one on and really like it so far.
B P M S, I've already written to Lyman re the buckhorn sight and am awaiting their reply, which I'm sure will take some time. If I don't hear from them by next Friday, I'll telephone them at their customer service no.
