20JK10 3 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 I currently have the Krebs sights and saw CSS now has a small weaver rail that goes in place of the rear sight. Has anyone used the weaver rail with an AR style rear sight and the Krebs front sight? I want to know if they would line up before spending money on the rail.

brickfield mfg 86 Posted February 25, 2014 Report Share Posted February 25, 2014 Peep sights (the type used on an AR) have to be close to the eye to work properly. That rail sits too far away from the eye for that style of sight, and is made to mount a "scout" scope, a red dot, or holographic type sight on. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
20JK10 3 Posted March 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 I know a pinhole AR sight wouldn't work, but they do make larger AR sights that could work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mullet Man 2,114 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 (edited) My guess is no. The rear sight would be too high. You would be adding a second piece in place (css rail) that increases the height. Now a dinzag tall FSB might work with what you want to do, since it is designed for the higher rear AK leaf sight. If you have Krebs sights already, why do you want to add a rail in place to install another albeit it different, rear peep? Edited March 2, 2014 by Mullet Man Quote Link to post Share on other sites
