AK front sight tool ?

[Porter Rockwell]

Do you recommend any particular front sight tool?

I think I got mine from Amazon but can't remember...get the one that can adjust windage and elevation.

Not the one I got - mine is more squared off.

That one would would work. I use the one from TAPCO.

Thanks Hayata and cmshoot


Any of you use an aftermarket front sight post on your AK?

I had a bent one on my PSL and when I tried to straighten it out with needle nose pliers it broke.

So I have a red one in it now.

Mine didn't come with the fancy tool. And I don't shoot my PSL in rapid fire enough to heat up the front sight.

Not sure if these plastic inserts would melt after a couple of mag dumps or not.

I've never used an aftermarket front sight in an AK. Used several different rear sights, but never changed out the front.

RPK rear sight is adjustable for windage (comes on Veprs). Might be another option for you.

When I had an AK I used a Magnamatic tool. I had the tool posted for $20 but the ad expired.

Which rear ones do you recommend?
