    Howdy, boys and girls. I've been looking high and low for a Lyman 57 gpr peep sight for my gpr, and have got zip. Evidently they're being made of unobtainium these days.
    Any ideas?
    Midway says these are expected to be available late July (2022) and OpticsPlanet will accept a Back Order. I suppose you might already have known this, though?? Good luck & stay safe!

    That is a very nice peep sight. The adjustable iris makes it more desirable.

    The few that I've seen installed have a bar attached to the receiver that corresponds to the slot on the back of the peep sight. There is sometimes several threaded holes in the bar that allows you to set the peep sight at different eye reliefs. I have seen only one with a solid bar with a single threaded hole. I think this is why there are two different holes on the peep sight to allow a minimal amount of eye relief adjustment.

    You will want to pair that rear sight with a proper front sight; a globe front sight rather than just a simple post.
