Has anyone mounted open sights on the TX 200? The front sight is a problem. I want to shoot at close range without optics.I need a solution for the front sight that is not permanent. No silver solder, etc.Surely someone has done this.

Thanks

If you want something functional and are not too worried about appearance you might look at a barrel clamp. I've used a barrel clamp with a short picatinny rail to mount various attachments, including miniature lasers which I've used for short range plinking and rats. I've also seen sights that attach to picatinny rails.

Thanks Gary. I sent the seller a question concerning the height of the sight above the shroud. to see if it will work with the rear sight. I wonder if anyone has tried this 3D sight It might just work for those of us wanting to shoot open sights with the TX 200.
