Hunting Carry?

RE: Hunting Carry?
While not all of my firearms carry both iron sights and opticals, the ones I consider "survival guns" usually have both.

The irons are 2 ounces of good insurance.

At one time I had a Winchester 94 set up with scope, flip up center sight and a peep-sight, all zeroed to a different load. The scope was set for jacketed factory loads, the peep sight for full power cast lead bullets and the center sight set for light squib loads for small game.

I was good for anything from rabbits to moose with that gun but changed it out because it would not balance for carry with the scope mounted over the receiver. It lost all its handling ease.
