After using an Aimpoint micro dot on my Arsenal SAM7R-61 7.62x39mm semi-automatic Kalashnikov pattern modern sporting rifle, I decided to remove it and the receiver mounted side rail base assembly to practice using the iron sights.
I’ll have to say, it’s pretty enjoyable. The rifle handled and looks more streamlined. A few days ago I managed a 2” group at 50m. Not bad. I usually don’t do as well with Soviet era iron sights but I practiced a measured 6 o’clock hold lining up the front post in tandem with the rear tangent. It worked well. I might even keep the rifle in this configuration.
PS: This is not a “commie rifle”. It was made just recently in the democratic country of Bulgaria, which is a close U.S. ally for those of you not good with geography and who would rather judge guns by how “scary” and “evil” they look. Guns are inanimate objects, and your beloved M4s and M16s are now the #1 most popular choice used by the Taliban. Should we call those “terrorist guns”?
