    Has anyone used this product?

    What are your experiences with this product?
    How much of a pain is it to level it?
    How secure is the connection using loctite?

    Seems like it might be better to have it silver soldered on there.

    TS157 .920 Barrel Dovetail Adaptor allows the use of TSR100 & TSR200 sighting systems to be used with .920 target barrel equipped 10/22s. The adaptor is a slip fit over the end of the barrel and is locked in place with thread lock compound. The adaptor is machined from 4140 alloy steel with manganese phosphate finish and has a 3/8" dovetail.

    Doesn't look like they are compatible with tech sights, though.

    The 3/8" dovetail has to also be machined low enough to line up with the tech sights.

    Ahh, I see what you are talking about now. I'd still look for a gunsmith to attach that adapter. Don't think I would trust myself and the loctite to take care of that.

    I'm quite certain I would fill most of the barrel with solder, based on how I like to sweat copper fittings.:toothless

    After mounting the rear sight (if it has a flat spot big enough to lay a level) to the receiver, I think I could get the adapter reasonably level. Not completely sold on the loctite thing though. It would probably be fine, but I typically like to use a 12d nail when a thumbtack will do...
