The iron sights are on the barrel so it will not affect them.
The scope is on the receiver and separate from the barrel. any change in position from wear to a burr of steel on the surfaces to a piece of lead chip on the breech-face will throw the scope off.
Besides, pellet rifles are like smoothbore shotguns with slugs, the practical range is so close the scope is not really needed, even by us old guys.
HEY ANTHONY,
how does that compressed gas rifle act when the gas is getting low?
Does it lose power gradually on the last few shots, dump the partial charge at the last full power round, or just refuse to fire if the pressure is low?
