Extended Front Site for Pardini K12Junior

I’m looking to see if it’s possible to purchase an extended front site for my Pardini K12Junior. I’d like to add an inch to make it similar to a Toz35 sight radius(difference is 1”). I doubt there is one to drop in but thought it might be possible to doctor one up.

Any thoughts?

Thank you,

Ted P

Even the Junior's sight radius is about the same as the Morini Titanium and LP10, if you want to add a bit more just put on the longer barrel it is a very simple job. I have both barrels and use both and have not detected any real difference between to longer / shorter sight base sight wise and I compete a lot using both. The longer barrel and cylinders increase stability but if I can get the short to work for me it would be better as I feel the balance is better and I can hold a superb sight picture for longer. But nothing to do with sight radius just rotational damping due to the extra weight out front.

Thank you for your reply! I’d prefer not to buy the longer barrel as it’s a $382.29 cost for just the barrel. I was hoping for a cheaper option.

Take care!

Just forget the whole idea. When shooting with one eye you only see two dimensions.

On one of my air pistols, I have moved the front sight to the rear just to make it appear wider. No difference in scores from my longer barreled guns.
