    @student , what kind of glue did you use? Recently, I've had good luck gluing plastic using JB Plastic Weld two-part epoxy.

    Unless someone has solved 3D printing of the rear sight of the 717/747 and has a sight replacement available this might be a solution. I put one on my 717 for funzies with cheap red dot and it works fine. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1491840-REG/sun_optics_sm7900_izh_46_barrel_mount.html

    Decibal Test Results, Need Input Please

    @subscriber ,That is sort of why I ended up with all those mods you designed in that blast of designing a couple of months ago, plus the 4 I had already purchased and a couple of variants by plinker4life. I had the opportunity to try that many so I did. I even put a mod on my CMP Daisy M853...

    Decibal Test Results, Need Input Please

    I think this is the definitive test if one is focusing on starlings. Might be another thing with squirrels or rats, I dunno. I had this same group of mods that Hate the Rain had. I used 2 Notos'. My wife stood about 30' to the left even with the muzzle but behind a tree. I shot into the...

    Other The IZH46M Achilles Heel

    @Frank in Fairfield Don't get in a hurry to sell this as a parts gun. I bet there is a fair and equitable solution that will get this pistol back in the game. I'll start looking around. I have one of these 46Ms as well and the "hunt" might prove useful to me in the future. I suspect there...

    Other Peep sight

    I worked with a great sports optician for custom glasses first but the glasses that worked were so unique I couldn't use them for anything else and I am really near sighted. I then tried Ghost rings but my issue was with my front sight, I couldn't see it except under certain light conditions...

    Other Peep sight

    I chuckled when I opened this thread. I went down this road hard in PB pistols when presbyopia became my friend. Good luck.
