since im looking to make my AK inherently more accurate when i install a new barrel, i was considering installing a krinkov rear sight block, which has the hinge on it for the hinged top cover... reason being is when i install the new barrel (5.56mm) i was thinking of having the barrel threaded for standard 5.56mm muzzle devices and combining the gas block and front sight in the krinkov fashion,
so i was looking for options of moving the rear sight back as well, either by using a krinkov top cover/sight, or perhaps some kind of a rail option that would allow me to mount a sight on a rail in the rear...
are there any top rail options that work better on the krink setup or am i better off using the stock rear sight block and just going with a texas weapon systems or similar top rail?... ive also seen beryl style top rails that fix to the rear tang with a cammed lever that i was considering using, but was thinking of going with a side folder on this rifle which wouldnt have a tang
if any of the hinged top rails for the AK maintain a perfect zero i thought about welding a short length of rail to the top of the gas block for a set of flip up backup sights
i hope you guys understand what im looking to do, id like to move the front sight off of the barrel itself, and in doing so i would need some means of moving the rear sight rearward too and im looking for a solution to do this
