AR15 apertures

[Guest jimdigriz]

I have Tech Sights for my AK. They use the same flip-up apertures as those on AR15s. The first ring is for short range shooting, and the second for distance. Aperture size is the same on both.

I want to replace the ones I have with a very large one, and a small one, both on the same plane. I found a pair with .200 and .052 aperture sizes. That would be about perfect, but unfortunately they are not on the same plane. Does anyone know where to find something like what I'm looking for? I've not had any luck with Google.

Thanks.

How do you like the Tech Sights? I've been waiting for the review on the Akforum, but haven't heard much lately. I know the first batch had some issues with the top cover. How does yours work?

Pictures maybe?

The sight picture is vastly superior to the stock AK sights. I love it. Groups are very tight and consistent.

The top cover is still a pain to remove, but much less so that when they first put out the product. You have to press in two locking detents, one on each side, and push the cover off. I'm always accidentally locking one back in while I'm pressing in the other.

Aesthetically, they disturb the natural lines of the AK. But I like the sight picture so much, that probably will cease to bother me after a bit.

Here they are on my Saiga AK:

I will probably paint them the same color as the gun.

Meanwhile, anyone have any ideas about the aperture replacement?
