Adding a tang sight to a vintage Flobert rifle.

I know this may sound stupid but I've gotten disabled and my sight can't seem t0 work with the existing sights so I figures I would use a tang sight i had to help on my Flobert rifle with the vertical drop of the low powered Aguila Colibri ammo (like 420fps with 20gr bullet).
My Flobert in in very nice condition and could shoot well in my back Yard 10 meter range if the original sights where visible to me and could handle the vertical drop. I have a few other single shot 22's that are really accurate and have vernier tang sight so I figured I'd try one on the Flobert. Due to my disables I am limited to home and my backyard range so I'm hoping it works really well.

Well, due to my age and poor eyesight The Vernier peep sight didn't work well so I decided to use a 4X Wollensak ranger type scope with external adjustments. I got it installed and it works great and I got it sighted in. I hope to find my camera and post a picture soon
