Taurus TX22 Fiber Optic Front Sight by Lakeline & Round Count Update.

[@AndrewCoonfield]

I love my Lakeline fiber optic sight, front and back for the TX22, had to file it down a bit, as their instructions indicated. Great video. Great sights. They have that rear sight now!

[@dilldowschwagginz2674]

I just put the lakeline fiber optic front sight on my TX22. Had to use a needle file to get it to seat right but I wasn't terrible fitting it. Definitely a great upgrade

[@markhonaker9688]

The Lakeline TA-RSC-PT111-G2 steel rear u notch sight fit my TX22 perfectly

[@n8sguntalk]

I'll have to pick one up. Thanks

[@gunmonkey6545]

Thanks for the video. I had Lakeline sights on my Taurus pt111 and they were nice. I will be getting the tx22 soon but will probably wait for the rear sight to come out.

[@americansoldier7776]

Love mine!!!

[@timbopie4504]

I messaged Lakeline myself. I'm going to get a set of the fiber optic sights for my pt111 g2 and use the front on the TX and rear on the 9mm. Thanks for the videos on the TX, have one in layaway.

[@antipeta3]

Cool looks nice I was hoping to find a replacement front and rear I'm having issues with the rear sight drifting while shooting 😀🤟

[@n8sguntalk]

I believe lakeline and tandemkross both make a set now for the tx22.

[@antipeta3]

Thanks dude I ordered the +5 base plates

[@jamiesloan5902]

You guys(and gals) are impressive!!! Love your range, and your dedication to training. I think she will be fine in a confrontation. lol

[@fun2drive107]

Bought two front sites for two TX22 weapons. I think the contrast will be a good one for more visible front site...

[@williammoore6952]

Still have a lake line sight? Thanks William

[@n8sguntalk]

I actually don't. One of the times this gun was sent back to Taurus they replaced the slide and kept my sight.

[@theoldshooter9011]

After purchasing and cleaning the gun we took it out and fired about 75 rounds. Took it apart and there were an abundance of metal shavings. It appeared as they came from the lower first guide as there was finish missing and pure silver metal exposed. I cleaned it again and the next time we fired about the same amount of rounds and this time I found very few metal shavings. It worked well with only one or two misfeeds and that could have been ammo oriented. Did anyone else experience metal shavings upon first shooting.?

[@whatmakesittick8362]

Update on the Lakeline site, they now carry a couple choices of sights for the TX. lakelinellc.com/product-category/taurus-pistol-parts-and-accessories/taurus-tx-22/ There are now fiber front AND rear sets. But even better, there is also a TALL option that raises up the sight picture. Both are aluminum so they won't mess up the slide action with a heavy optic. As a bonus, they also look awesome! The tall ones help to clear a wide suppressor or compensator, which make the whole package really bad ass- especially for under $50. They also now carry a stainless recoil assy and a speed loader that goes over the mags. I currently have a bunch of parts from Lakeline on my G2C and I can confirm that the quality and fit is excellent on them. I'm looking into the TX22 as a great range gun, to be used by the whole family. The mags are cheap- hold 16 rounds, recoil is nothing and a compensator will make the gun awesome for reset shots. Or add a suppressor for shooting in the yard without raising any eyebrows. Add to these benefits the low cost of 22LR and we have a winner!

[@noel4854]

800 thru mine with only 3 failure to feed on the first three mags. $300 well spent 😁

[@troyhall7144]

These did not fit! Told to file the boss side. Still unimpressed with quality. Replaced with Tandemkross sights (good quality) and they fit! Already had green optic installed too!!

[@DanielMichaelpuritandilemma]

I had the exact same experience. I went with Tandemkross as well.. perfect... made for it.

[@stevenwebster7591]

Thanks for the info. My tx22 fits my safariland vp9 holster perfectly. The tx22 mags are very close to size of glock 42 mags. However I do not have pouches for the 42 so I can not confirm. Has anyone found anything that does work well and a good fit for the tx22 mags.

[@n8sguntalk]

I use the esstac kywi double stack pouches. They fit lose in them but good enough for range use.

[@upper-leftadventures721]

When you say loctite the sights do you have to remove the windage and elevation screws on the side of the rear sight then apply loctite and adjust them back how you need them then let it cure for 24hours?

[@n8sguntalk]

No I just put a drop on the outside of the screw and let it seap in and hold what it will.

[@upper-leftadventures721]

@@n8sguntalk oh okay perfect. So just put a small amount on the windage and elevation screws, let it seap in and set up? Btw thank you for the reply and great video sir.

[@n8sguntalk]

@@upper-leftadventures721 that is correct. You welcome. Thanks for watching

[@daffydill5807]

Nothing hard about loading the magazines.

[@n8sguntalk]

I agree. Its easy enough

[@chicomccombs1099]

Not hard at all, we did have a couple get kind of misaligned while loading but was easy to fix

[@Iconoclast55]

Love the gun..Worst and cheapest sights I have ever seen..Mine move around if you shake them ..Even with the screw tightened.

[@n8sguntalk]

Might want to contact Taurus and see if they will replace the sight if they move that bad.. Mine havent moved around with me all tho after I got them adjusted where I wanted them I put blue lock tight on them.

[@lgwappo]

Is the Lakeline sight taller than the Taurus sight? My TX22 shoots 1.5" high at 10 yards with the rear sight all the way down. Looking for a taller front sight. Thx.

[@n8sguntalk]

No, I believe it is actually shorter. I had to lower my rear sight adjustment alittle after installing to get it back zeroed correctly

[@jamiesloan5902]

I've saw several people saying that their TX is shooting high. My rear sight is adjusted about 2/3rds of the way up, and is dead on. Maybe they changed to a taller front sight, before I bought mine. I can't wait till someone comes up with a full set of fiber optics for it.

[@countryboy602]

Did yours require any fitting to get it the seat properly ?

[@n8sguntalk]

No it went right in.

[@erich44magnum]

Mine shoots 6 inches high at 15 feet worthless!!! Didn’t they test it?

[@n8sguntalk]

😲 Did you try adjusting the rear sight?

[@erich44magnum]

@@n8sguntalk there is no adjustment. It’s a fixed sight.

[@n8sguntalk]

@@erich44magnum I'm only running the lakeline front with factory rear and was easily able to zero it. May want to put you factory rear sight back on so you can make adjustments.

[@erich44magnum]

@@n8sguntalk Factory site broke that’s why I changed it out thanks for your input

[@n8sguntalk]

@@erich44magnum I would contact Taurus and get a new one. Thanks for watching.

[@pewpro941]

With the low lakeline sight does it still clear a silencer or do you have to use the tall sights? The factory sights clear my silencer perfect

[@n8sguntalk]

It's the same height as the factory sight so it should clear the same.

[@pewpro941]

n8sguntalk nice. I heard some reviews say it was a lower sight.

[@n8sguntalk]

@@pewpro941 From what I can tell it isn't.

[@alexandertorres2474]

What holster are you using for the TX22

[@n8sguntalk]

It's made by SwiftDrawHolsters. Its actually made for a cz p10c but the tx22 fits it well

[@chrispetersen1423]

Do they make a rear sight yet for the tx22?

[@n8sguntalk]

I'm not 100% sure. Haven't checked back with then in a while.

[@chrispetersen1423]

Ok thanx

[@patsyleeoswald3178]

Yes, they do. "Standard" height and tall ones.

[@soldieroftoughlove7635]

Thumbs down for the extra long intro.

[@n8sguntalk]

Sorry to disappoint. I feel like a 1 minute intro isn't to long.

[@davidvaseau7369]

Tandem Kross makes a front and rear optic sight set.

[@n8sguntalk]

You are correct. They didn't at the time this video was posted.

[@soldieroftoughlove7635]

Intro TOO LONG I got the standard height front and rear fos and it shoots 4" high at 7 yards.

[@jhlewis10]

Same here, and it's not really adjustable.

[@MajTom128]

One hundred and fifty thousandths wide! Take a math course.

[@n8sguntalk]

I thought I said one hundred & fifty 🤦‍♂️ If I didn't I ment to. Since i showed the caliper i think it was fairly obvious 🤷‍♂️ Thanks for watching.
