    Things I liked:very easy to install. Improvrd my groupings tremendously from 3/4" to 1/4 in. at 10 meters (benched). Very easy to use. I installed it on the IZH 61 rifle.
    Things I would have changed:Finer adjustment (elevation & windage).

    By Stephen from USA on 2010-11-19 16:08:36

    Things I liked:Nothing.
    Things I would have changed:Poor fitting metal parts allow wobble on the adjustment slides/pins. The fit and finish scream of low quality.
    What others should know:If you think you're getting something w/ well made and well fitted parts for $60+, think again. Worthy of a $20 air gun not a $200++ one.

      Things I liked:Solid build, metal parts, easy to mount, holds accuracy well.
      Things I would have changed:For my Daisy Avanti 853cm the mount screw sits about 1/4" above the loading bolt. It gets in the way unless you use your left thumb under the rifle to cock it, or hook your right index finger under the bolt to cock and load. IMO they should have put the mounting screw on the left side, out of the way of the bolt latch.
      What others should know:I like peep sights for bullseye target shooting, and this one is pretty accurate, it will improve accuracy over any blade rear sight for target bullseye shooting.

      Things I liked:Reasonable price for a diopter sight. The construction seems to be sturdy. I`ve tried it on my izh 60 and 61 rifles and it tightens up the groups real well.
      Things I would have changed:Can`t think of anything exept maybe a hole somewhere to put a little screw trough to prevent scope creep(wich is actually a little bit of a problem on the izh 60 due to the plastic dovetails). One can easily drill a hole at home however if needed.
      What others should know:Good buy for the izh 60 & 61`s.

      Things I liked:Fitted this on my 953 along with a front globe sight. Works great with my indoor range.
      Things I would have changed:It's a bit more then I thought it was going to be but it works well. Only issue is that when I put the rifle in it's case I'm worried that the rubber eye piece will get deformed due to the pressure of the case around it. For now I have a piece of foam cut out that I stick right before the eye piece that creates a bit more area around the eye piece to avoid it getting squished.
      What others should know:Nice click adjustments makes it easy to dial in the target.

      Things I liked:Greatly improves accuracy ove the stock sights. It is easy to adjust windage and elevation via the large knobs. It is heavy and seems solidly made.
      Things I would have changed:Reduce the price. The diopter sight costs almost as much as the rifle. Also, include a front globe sight set as standard.
      What others should know:You need to order a front globe sight separately from Daisy.

      Things I liked:This is the rear sight I chose to put on the Daisy Powerline 953 rifle to use for off-hand shooting practice. It is an all metal construction for the body. The only plastic used are the adjustment knobs along with the mounting screw. The windage and elevation adjustments use a 10-click detent per revolution. Each adjustment screw uses a 0.5mm thread pitch.
      Things I would have changed:Having an adjustable diopter, yet that would not be at this price point.
      What others should know:If you are adding this to a Powerline 953 to do 10m shooting, you will also need the front globe sight. Unfortunately at this time, Pyramyd does not offer this part. The Daisy/Avanti part number is 169816-000.
