Re: Parker hale sights

Re: Parker hale sights
Aperture sights are easier to learn how to use than bladed rear sights, IMHO.
Here is a pic of my oldest son with his muzzle loading rifle, if you look carefully you can see the rear sight is an aperture. It is quite fast to use, in addition to being accurate. (The picture is a couple of years old, he's a lot bigger now!)
