this is the link to them, you are welcome to some or all of them you want as people have given them to me over the years, some of them go way way back to AH1 like midnight's P51d sight

Keep in mind that there's some new sight mechanics now, so some gun sights may not be as useful now (too small, too low-res, etc). I think Dogg is working on revising his gun sight pack, and I've already released an updated US Mk.VIII. The download link can be found at this thread:

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Many of the sights are still usable.

Please check this thread if you want to adjust size only, you just need no include a simple text file, which can be edited in Windows Notepad, instructions there:

Some, as Saxman said,  may have too low resolution.

Others may show off center.

These may require some reworking using some bitmap editor like GIMP, Paint Shop Pro, or Photoshop.

If you have trouble resizing,  please post here.
