New sights on a Saiga?

[Sewerman]

Is it a huge pain to put new sights on a Saiga and would it be worth the trouble?
Does anyone know how to adjust the front sight it has?it shoots slightly to the right.

you have to push it in the front sight housing... you can buy an ak/sks sight pusher to move it, to the left...

Sewerman,

I put a Galil Dustcover on my Saiga and used ther Galil rear sight with the Saiga front. I have an extra dustcover I would sell for $10.00 shipped. It does not have the sight parts, but you can get them from Gun=parts corp...

Hope that helps

could you please tell me about fitting the galil rear cover to your saiga? Did it just click in or was some fitting required? Does it keep zero?

I could use some tritium night sights for an ak-clone, and fitting the thing with galil's sights would make it somewhat easier. Besides, nothing beats a radioactive rifle, right?
