« on: April 09, 2011, 06:41:08 PM »
Can you custom drawers throw some pics of you sights on this page so others can see so we can all trade, for some of your gunsights are quite nice...
there is a particular sight I want and just can't find it for the life of me and it was in a recent post...    :cry

I hate to be redundant but you have heard of the search function, yes?

I know. Too hard.

-----------------------------


see rule #4


I didn't want to add to the many gunsight post already here. Do you really think I didn't search first? Most of the links for gunsights were broken or original mostly. I was hoping to find NEW custom sights. and not a link, but cockpit pics of their sights.    :confused:

well the 91st has a gunsight on thier webpage that is for a rear gunner, but you can use it as a intercepter for long range shooting. It has a horizontal tick mark that you put on the plane your chasing or getting followed by that is excatly 1k out. Only thing though is you have to be dead 6 or 12 depends on your position for it to work properly. Check it out

For the most part, you can make your own sights in paint. Just save it under AH2 under SIGHTS.

Is this what you're looking for?

I don't use custom sights any more but, if I did, there would be one custom for divebombing where I duplicate the angle, speed and release altitude every time and use it with maximum head position up.

I might make one that works with maximum head up position to  make deflection shooting easier but I usually rely on the tracers.

This brings me to a question.......can one make a custom tracer color like I used to do in warbirds?

I downloaded these sights a few years back:
