Looks cool to me. What is it made from? How much does it cost and where did you find it?

I guess it is kinda cool. Wouldn't you have to replace the rear sight with an aperture sight?

you could if you wanted to. im thinking i want to use the duplex ones and always have the rear sights on the lower thick part of the crosshairs



it turns out you have to enlarge the hole in the front sight protector to install this.

For improved accuracy in a PRECISION rifle, it works! Three of my twentytwo target rifles are wearing fine crosshair front sights. I modified standard globe front sights.
For an SKS? The vertical adjustment would be coarse - you'd have to adjust by half-turns. I really think a pointed post would be better for the SKS.

I put a tech sight on my norinco, which basically doubles the sight radius. It is a peep copied after the M16 rear sight, but is also ajustable for elevation. Extending the sight radius has opened up my sight picture somewhat. The rifle definitely shoots tighter now.

It's suppose to screw right in where the original one goes doesn't it, no gunsmithing required? I've considered getting it. Not all that expensive.

If you do get one, let us know what you think.

the hole on top of the front sight hood of a yugo would need to be enlarged a bit .
but it fits all others apparently
