Thanks. Just what I was looking for, though I will have to adapt a bit for a reciever peep... but that's just math.

Is there a way to calculate the optimal height for a front sight from the height of the rear sight? I'm thinking there should be some calculation that would work kind of like how any M16/AR can be "mechanically zeroed" with a specific post/adjustment based on the rear sight mounted...

My primary carry is an SP101. My duty gun is a G17. I have a G19, but I keep a .22 upper on it for cheap trigger-time... So, no, I don't carry an SA revolver, but I do prefer to carry a revolver for defensive purposes...

We had an R.O.T.C. team as well. I shot on it for three years. We also were allowed to bring our own personal guns to school and keep them in our hall lockers during the day -- pistols, rifles, shotguns, whatever we had. Nobody ever shot or threatened anybody else, and it was all cool. This was at ...

Also, most of the talking heads live in Urban areas with absurd and obscene anti-gun/gun registration laws. You can't imagine how hard it has been for me to convince some of these Michiganders now living in Wyoming that they do NOT have to "register" their handguns with the local Sherriff...

For 12 ga. I only have two left. My Handi/12 ga. barrel & the Savage 311 SXS. The rest are all 16 ga. It only took me 40 years to decide the 16 is the best of all. 16's will do eveything a 12 will do and will exceed a 20 ga. in every respect. "Hits like a 12, shoots like a 20" http://...

Given the choice (and I have the choice), I prefer 16. Shoots like a 20, hits like a 12. Now, given the TEOTWAWKI scenerio theorized, then, unless I had a BUNCH of primers for a bunch of 16ga brass hulls, I'd say 12ga because it is ubiquitous as a combat gun in Govt and will always have more OEM amm...
