The FR-8 FAQ PageOver the 8 or so years that I have been posting my FR-8 articles, the same questions often arise. I guess its long overdue to post this brief FAQ page. How Do I adjust the sights on my FR-8? Is it safe to shoot commercial ammo in MY FR-8? Where can I get parts for my FR-8? Where can I get a Manual for this gun?
How
do I adjust the sights on my FR-8?
Is it safe to shoot commercial ammo in MY FR-8?
Every rifle is unique and its past is unknown. Every owner is unique and
his knowledge and experience varies.
The only way to solidly mount a scope would be to grind off the rear sight and mount and then drill and tap the rifle for standard scope mount bases. I
hope though that you will decide against such a irreversible modification. Seriously,
the limitations of this sighting system for me is the rather coarse front
sight blade. But by using a 6 o'clock hold on a target at 100 Meters,
I can easily hold 2 to 3 MOA. You will never need more for most hunting
or plinking applications.
Where can I get parts for my FR-8? I'm sorry but I do not know. I do not sell parts. Plus I am in Canada so most sources I would contact would not be the best source for someone in the USA. Best bet in general is to post ads on various Trader boards such as the one Tuco runs ( Tuco's Gunboards ) or watch Ebay for parts.
Where can I get a Manual for this gun? Coming Soon!
