Feets / Collection / My build Blasphemy? Maybe.

The rear ghost ring on the irons is way too big for me to shoot this gun with any repeatability. The red dot makes a huge difference. Ordered a smaller stem in order to actually use the irons as backup.

S&W 1854 .44, Vortex Sparc 2.

I hear some folks stick an O rings in the ghost ring  to make it a smaller hole. Cheap fix if it works!

See I'm the opposite problem.  Citadel levtac with the peep mounted partway down the barrel.  It had a threaded insert,  plus being further away, means the peep was damn near useless until I took out the insert to widen it. But that's with the peep much further away from my eye.

I think you could add a bit of glue to the oring to make it stay  in place  too, if you were worried about friction not being enough. Probably it would be enough though
