Peep Sight for Gamo's
« on: October 19, 2008, 08:18:44 AM »
Hello,
I was wondering if there is a peep sight on the market that will fit the Gamo line of air rifles? I've just recently found out about peep sights & they sound very interesting to me so I thought I'd like to try one.
Thanks in advance for any info.

I am new to peeps but from what I heard/read the Williams peep with  fit right on the scope rail of 48. I am not sure but I had a Gamo Shadow 1000 and I would GUESS that the scope rail on their isn't drastically different. Get advice from someone who has experience with this but take a look at these <$60 parts.

Just got referred to this peep that has knobs (you don't need a screwdriver to adjust windage and elevation) and it "comes with an attaching base which is extra with the other peeps". I was basically told that the others sights require extra stuff and the Beeman sight includes everything you need to put it on the gun included in the package.

I bought my 48 from these good guys here at Cobra Airguns and they are selling for the same price as Pyramid Air (they are currently out of stock with the Beeman peeps).

Mendoza makes both and open blade and a pep sight, sell for around $25.00 each, they are a full micromiterre sight with postive locks, I compair them to the Williams sight, will fit most 11mm dove tails so long as the serface is flat.

Nice looking Sight, a bit on the high side and it could be worth every dime of it. Check out the MENDOZA Sight, they make 2, 1 open blade and one peep sight. Fits on almost any 11 mm flat dovetail. Price with shipping is about 1/2 of the one you have listed. I got Mendoza to send me 1 open blade when I told them I was going to use it and test it on a GAMO CFX. I shoot with a scope, but I was impressed with the MENDOZA as a replacement for the GAMO Sight and I even tried it on my RWS Diana 34 Panther, appears to work well on any thing it is used on if you like using these types of sights. Just my 2 cents worth.
