Jake,the FIRST thing I done to my Prohunter when I got it home was to remove the iron sights. I shoot scopes on about everything I shoot(including hand guns) so the iron sights are (too me) just extra stuff to snag and carry on the gun. You can use the Filler screws found in the barrel to fill in the sight holes,and you can order a big one(they will send you 2 for the front hole. I also use blue lock tite on the filler screws,applied with a tooth pick in the holes. Ron
