getitat 609 Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 Hello I'm seeking a rear sight to match a Krebs clamp-on S12 front sight. I'm thinking the ghost-ring type (HK?) that Tony installs might be the best way to go. I'm probably going to use my existing rear sight base for a rail mount, I'm hoping to set up some BUIS that will be tall enough to clear the mounted rail. Anybody know of a source to get a rear sight welded to the dust cover? And a source to purchase the HK-type rear sight? Does this sound like a rational way to go with it? Any advice would be hugely appreciated.... guido2 in Houiston Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Onepoint 0 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I have no idea how it matches to the front sight for elevation. But the parts can be had http://www.robertrtg.com/g3rearsight.htm Or as I posted in another thread. http://www.sksboards.com/smf/index.php?topic=16767.0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jbremount 0 Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 Check out this link, I think this sight/dustcover is pretty much the same as what you are considering. I don't know how well it works, but it will probably look and work as well/or better than a home made rear sight cover:(linky) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dayanx 1 Posted September 29, 2007 Report Share Posted September 29, 2007 I don't personally see the point in ghost rings, but will the standard sights get in the way? I wonder about welding a set of fixed sights over having a rear sight you can adjust. I prefer the Saiga rear blades to the SKS, the notch is much more prominent. Don't have to rely on flash sight pictures so miuch at close range... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I prefer it to the HK sight, I would take the CETME sight over the HK one if I could get one to weld to my top cover. I made a fixed aperture sight with protective ears which had to be cut away to allow using the side rail ComBloc scope so mine looks like a fixed FAL sight. I found the aperture location by using a small laser aimed thru the factory sights. I used screws to hold it while I test fired the rifle and later I had the sight base welded to the top cover.
