I would get a scope but they arent allowed during the Minnesota muzzleloader season. The sights on this guns are the Williams Fire Sights which, from what I have heard, are supposed to be good sights. The only problem I had is that during low light conditions the green sights (the sights near the trigger) are too bright and makes it hard to see the red sight (at the end of the barrel). Do you think I could take some black electrical tape and put it over the green fiber optic sights to dim them down?
