CHEAP PEEP For My Mossberg

[mr.steve]

I don't have the rear peep sight yet for my Mossberg 152. So, with new magazines arriving tomorrow I had to think fast. Sometimes I thrive under pressure and, sometimes I just weird out. This is adjustable and cheap.:

Oh, this is my first attempt at picture posting as well.

Necessity is the mother of invention.

My dad always says, If you don't have what you need, make do with what you have.

Need a range report stat!

That is a good idea, would also work work in a pinch or backup if the primary got broke.

A paperclip and a pad from a tens unit? BRILLIANT!!!

Im interested to see how this pans out for you. lol. Post a group.

 

[mr.steve]

Okay. Here's the first group I shot. This is straight from the work bench.

Impressed the heck out of me! I do believe a smaller aperture would make a smaller group. But, not bad for off the wall guess. So I'm happy for now. I have two new magazines for it and Blazer Value Pack works fine with it. I'll have to order the real sight from Havlin soon. In the mean time I might remount the original scope and play with that.

What are all the parts from?

I used a paper clip, small rectangular inner tube patch, A wing nut from a two-way radio mount, pieces of an electric car door lock, small screw and nut and a dab of trial and error. I'll be taking it to the range in Rochester tomorrow to tweak it a bit .

 

[bcannon]

Awesome !! Love the inner tube and the electric car parts - macgiver relative -

 

[PappyD]

A paperclip and a pad from a tens unit? BRILLIANT!!!

As in Transcutaneous Electronic Nerve Stimulator?

Shoot, that will work on Zombies too! Zap them in the head!

Just got back from Sand Burr Gun Range. First time I've been there. Had a great time. I wanted some distance to test/align the peep sight. Had to trim the patch about an 1/8 of an inch. and drop it down some. After that I was hitting steel at 75 yards, and 100 yards.
