    Love them. I purchased a 10/22 that was setup for Appleseed by a fellow INGO member. I love the tech sights. I have 3 Rugers and other .22's and the rifle with tech sights is my favorite to shoot between 25 to 50 yards. I wouldn't want the gun to be my only 22, but I really enjoy having it in my collection.

    I have them on a 10/22 and really like them. I think it will increase your sight radius about 6 inches also.

    I like mine on my 10/22... HOWEVER, they seem a little flimsy. The front site is so high. I feel like I really have to be careful not to bump the it on anything for fear of having it bend or come loose. I like my guns to be durable. I want to know if I drop it, it will pick up and be 100%. So, my 10/22 with tech sites is fun to shoot at the range, but I wouldn't want to rely on it.

    This. On the clamping screw. I don't know about the 10-22 techsight, but the Marlin front sight has some pretty beefy ears protecting the post from being damaged/bent.


    Yes, do use locktite. I did, but they still came apart on my forth range trip (including an appleseed)... I reapplied the locktite and have been good ever since.

    The ears protecting the post are plastic (on the version I have). They will protect the post, but only to the extent that they hold up. Mine are a little bent. Maybe I'm just hard on them.:dunno:

    I really like them on my SKS. I have the TS200 (elevation adjustable) and I think it is a bit overkill for the SKS. I think the standard sight would be sufficient, with the slightly larger apperature.

    I have them on a Marlin 795 and they are great. Definitely use locktite on the rear sight clamp screw. The only downside is they cost almost as much as the rifle I put them on.

    mine

    I have a set on a CZ 452 Full stock. I've not had them come loose but haven't used them hard. I drilled out the aperture on mine. Needed more light coming thru for hunting squirrels in the dim woods. I like them.:yesway:
