Get the iron sights. That is what you like. I try to put iron sights on all of my guns, but often put a scope on too. It paid off one year when the gun I was using for hunting bounced off the ATV and had a very (un)lucky hit of a rock on the eye piece lens resulting in a broken scope. Leupold did send me a new one for free but if it was not for the iron sights that hunt would of been ruined.

I would rather take a round of 50BMG to the foot than a 22short to the base of the skull. all 26 of my guns are 45/70 govt, 357 mag, 22 or 12 ga... I believe in keeping it simple. Wish my wife did as well...
