CVA Paramount .45

[Dutch1023]

Has anyone here set up a CVA Paramount with peep sights? I just had a set of Williams Western Precision Muzzleloader sights put on my Paramount and at 100 yds they are hitting 12” high. The rear aperture is as low as it will go. I would go with a scope or red dot sight if it was legal in Nevada. Trying to figure this out quick as I have a Bull tag that starts the end of next month. If anyone has had this issue and has figured out a solution I would love to hear what they did.
Thanks

IF you have FB, it would pay to join this site. Guys have been going through it, especially the CO guys with the new 50cal.

Hi Dutch 1023, I have had a Paramount .45 for almost a yr now. I really like it. I have a scope on mine. I have not heard of anyone putting peep sights on one as of yet. There is a long ongoing thread on the 2019 Paramounts in here called CVA Paramount Update. Last I looked at it it had 44 or 45 pages. Pretty cool & lots of Paramount owners to hit up. You're in the right place. Welcome

To lower POI you need to raise your front sight. You will need a taller front sight.

Do you know of anyone who makes one! This is where I’m stuck. Looked everywhere.

Try this place. Not inexpensive but they can help you figure out what you need. This is a link to a banded ramp sight with many height options.

Taller front bead. Check and see if Williams has one. Not hard to change at all.

Edit: just looked up the sight you purchased and realized it’s a front globe. There’s got to be something out there for it. Have you called Williams?

Talked to Williams yesterday. They suggested a shotgun shorty Ramp with a 3/8” dovetail and a Lyman front globe and to or a Lee Shaver crosshairs card. All is ordered waiting to see when it gets here if it’s what I need. I will update.
Thanks

I think you’re on the right track with that. I’ve used about the same setup before scores were legal here and was pretty happy with it.
