Best adjustable rear sight?


Recommended Posts

I just combed over some posts here and saw a web sight for Global Trades and they have windage adjustable peep rear sights. I am less than impressed with the factory rear sight on this gun. Of course the front post basically being off by 4 to 6" at 50 yards was a bit of a surprise too! So I will get the front sight adjustment tool.

 

Simply put, I picked up a 16" to give me a harder hitting beater deer rifle in the 0 to 200 yard range. I usually use AR's to hunt with but I hold myself to 125 yards with a red dot. At the same time a lot of my kills are right at 125 yards, always clean one shot kills due to using the right load etc.....I do not mind paying for accuracy in terms of a good sight due to using the gun for hunting.

 

I already slapped a red dot on it that was on my .410. I am sure it will be great to 200 yds once I get it to the range, but I want a rear sight I can dial in as well. The more adjustable the better. I see some kind of sight riding on the tromix conversions (HK?) but they switched out the front post too. I do not want to mess much with this gun.

 

If this gun works out, then next year I may have to choose betwen getting another .308 (tromix) or getting an AR upper in 6.8.

Make sure you call them first to see if they are still available. I think I saw that sight you are talking about and when I called they had not had them in stock for some time. This was a few months (and several hundred beers) ago so my memory is a little fuzzy if this was in fact the same company.

 

I've been shopping around for windage adjustable sights for some time but I think I will stay with the stock ones until I get a rear sight receiver rail that goes over the top cover. That way I get the benefit of a longer sight radius.

Hey Zoub...

I did a refinish job on a customers AK the other day and it had a mojo adjustable rear sight on it. I was very impressed and will be getting one soon. Look into it, I think it might be what you are looking for. www.mojosights.com

Push down hard on the end of the leaf spring with a screwdriver while pulling on the sight leaf at a low angle to follow the groove in the sight block.

Thanks guys.

 

I am driving down the highway today thinking about my .308 and how to remove my rear sight and then I remember this thread! I have been on the road a lot and moved too. I need to get this going as deer season is not really that far off.
