By Charles from USA on 2012-03-17 13:28:38 Things I liked:Well made. Very easy to install. Remove the two stock front sight screws with a 3/32" Allen wrench slip on the plates and new longer screws and re-tighten. Mine had a tiny bit of side slip so watch that as you tighten down the screws to make sure the sight blade points straight up.Things I would have changed:My concern is the longer screws damaging the shot tube if you don't use all four plates. The included screws are for four plates to work with the Mendoza sight, and seem to work with two plates on my Bronco and Beeman peep. I don't think the screws are pressing on my shot tube, but it would be nice to include additional screws that were shorter for use with two plates or even one plate to accommodate other peep sights. What others should know:I used two of these plates to raise the front sight to work with a Beeman peep site. Before, I had the peep bottomed out to get on target. Two of these plates put the sight in the middle of its adjustment range. Apparently with the Mendoza peep you need four plates. Other peep sights may not need all four plates. |  |

By Gerald from USA on 2012-03-16 16:42:49 Things I liked:Nicely matches the Mendoza peep sight. Easy to install.Things I would have changed:An alignment pin in the sight and the Bronco. What others should know:A little slop in alignment allows it to be installed with a slight tilt. You may need to apply side pressure when tightening the mounting screws. |
- Things I liked:Allows you to lift the front sight to enable you to better center the rear aperature sight.
Things I would have changed:nothing
What others should know:Elevating the sight plain a little on the Bronco was necessary for me due to my large face (fat face) and the design of the straight stock. I really do like the straight stock of the Bronco. Reminds me of an 1903 springfield battle rifle. - Things I liked:Metal construction and quality black finish exceeded my expectation for the parts. All required hardware included.
Things I would have changed:If you want the target special sights get the Bronco Target Special rifle instead of the parts. A small sheet of instructions noting wrench size and an installation illustration would ease fears of the mechanically disinclined.
What others should know:Perfect solution to raise the front sight of the Air Venturi Bronco front sight for use with the Mendoza 11mm dovetail mount diopter rear sight. If you don't already have a Bronco and want the target sights buy the Target Special instead of the standard Bronco. - Things I liked:Well made. Very easy to install.
