So I have a pellet gun...

[Toasty4you]

It was my dad's from more than thirty years ago. The front iron sight is missing, as you can see, so what can I use as the front sight? A paperclip + duct tape combo? A metal bar? Cardboard in the shape of a cock? You decide.

Also this is my first time posting in more than a year, hurray for me. For those of you who don't know what a sight is: Here it is, basically all I need is a vertical object in the shape of a bar.

Try using your heads BBS. Below is a picture of the antique gun.

Dude, just get a scope.

A paintball gun.

Like a real man

don't be cheap, a scope is your best bet cause it is adjustable. if you use anything else, if it moves slightly, your aim is fucked.

This.

If it's only the front sight what you might consider doing is building your own scope using a bit of solder or a pipe clamp or something like that. It will be inexpensive and you'll be able to align it yourself when you initially install it to be accurate.

fuck sights only pussies use sights!

[H-K-S]

Get a scope or order a Mosin-Nagant sight.

You know what guys, I would get a scope, but they don't make any scopes for this gun. At all. It has a strange fitting on it and the gun stopped manufacturing around 25 years ago. It is called the Winchester 425 I believe and you can look it up if you want, it's pretty damn rare. I have found only one site on the internet that sells parts for this gun but the prices are way overblown, the front sight costs about 35 bucks or so. I think I could build my own sight, that would be fun, unless I feel like blowing 35 bucks.

But he's not looking for reliabilty, he's looking for CHEAP and EASY.

Buy a rail to put the new age scope on. It should be fine if you can get the rail on no problem.

[Lemon17]

Yeah, you should either build it, or buy it if you don't have enough will/time.

[REDSPADES]

Do you have warhammer figurines?

If you have the metal ones, with those off-cuts of pewter n shit? Superglue an off-cut to the end of the barrel, that'll do. I'd say file a groove into the metal off cut but its only a pellet gun, chances are the knurling is fucked through the arse anyway.

[EARIO]

put about 3 or 6 washers in it and shoot at something thick.

mind the recoil.

Don't get a scope, but don't cheap out on $35 for some sights.

I find it hard to believe that you could make an accurate sight by hand. Even being off by a very small margin could reduce the gun's accuracy VERY considerably.

[Me-Patch]

It's a pellet gun, you don't even need sights. You certainly don't need a friggin scope.

That's the thing though. The rear sight is completely adjustable [up and down] due to wind resistance or some weird shit like that. So if my sight is off all I have to do is turn this knob.
