    Shamrocks,
    Tempting....... But the pad wear on the barrel from having the Bayo band will show.
    Plus the fact a T2 band will cost about a 1/4 of what you have invested.
    Put the Adj rear sight on and enjoy it.
    BTW....... You just can't beat Eddy, Can You??

    Nice to see you back around.

    Cheers,
    Charlie-Painter777

    P.S.
    Memory refresher:
    Oil that rear sight first with a good penetrating oil.
    Remember with muzzle pointed away, Tap rear sight off from left to the right.

    When putting on the new Adj site, Crank the windage all the way to the right.
    Install from right to left. Again with muzzle pointed away.

    I just had a Rear Adj shoot loose, A couple lite drops of Blue Loctite seems to have worked.

    Thanks Charlie. I haven't been doing too much with carbines for awhile now with a lot of other things taking my time but couldn't resist this one when I stumbled across it. You're right, it's always great to do business with Eddy and I am going to go out in the next couple days to shoot it before the sight arrives and go back later to sight it in. Thanks for the P.S. about the removal/install. I had to refresh my memory on that since it's been awhile and the blue loctite sounds like a plan as well just in case.
