th3unkn0wn 5 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 As I mentioned, I destroyed the front sight base on my Vepr 308. I am now looking to either purchase a replacement or find some kind of solution except for having to do any welding on the gas block. I have not been able to find the part for this. Does anyone know where to get one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zagumennyyilya 51 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 How exactly did you break it? Pics? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
th3unkn0wn 5 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2012 I don't have pictures. I basically cut it up and threw it away. It looks like Black Horse Arsenal makes one but is cost 115. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
th3unkn0wn 5 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) Well it seems that i will be without a FSB for a while. So I have decided on a 4x27 scope side mounted and a quick reflex scope on a rail that replaces the rear sight. Edited November 29, 2012 by th3unkn0wn Quote Link to post Share on other sites
th3unkn0wn 5 Posted November 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2013 Trying again, Anyone know where to get a Front sight base for a Vepr .308 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sirex 34 Posted November 3, 2013 Report Share Posted November 3, 2013 I did see some steel FSBs for AKs listed on Ebay a bit ago. They are listed for "airsoft" rifles mainly due to ebay's rabid anti-gun policy. Typically anything referring to an "assault rifle", gets removed. Search AK front sight or AK sight. They clamp on using a set of screws, but you may be able to also use more permanent methods. Good luck. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

grommit666 24 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Share Posted February 2, 2015 I know this is a bit of thread necromancy but oh well. If you're still looking for a FSB, Dinzag appears to be making them. http://dinzagarms.com/saiga_762x39/akfsb.html . I haven't tried them for the Vepr specifically but I have one on my Saiga 12 that works just fine. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
