Open Sights on a Rimfire
What are considered open sights? Looked through the rules and unless I missed it, it is not clear. Would a Burris red dot reflex sight or something to that mold qualify?

Re: Open Sights on a Rimfire
'Neck is correct, but I figured I would go ahead and link to the rules in case anyone wanted to look at this or another issue. On page 8 there are two categories for rimfire listed, "Optics" and "Iron Sights".
Specifically, "[t]he use of any optical device (including lasers) qualifies that pistol for 'Optics'. Fiber-optic sight inserts are allowed in 'Iron Sights'. "

Hard times in the land of plenty. Don't kick a man when he's down 'Neck, I'll be back on my feet soon as I get's my check from the gov't. Been reading their booklets but ain't found nothing I quailify for, course that ain't stopped most of 'em.

Re: Open Sights on a Rimfire
Im working on getting a ruger mark 3 with red dot. I will not be able to compete with you but I will participate.
I need to sell my mark 2 first with pencil barrel.
