View Thread: XS Big dot for AK


bigmike
I was wondering if anyone is running these on their Ak. I have read many great reviews for the handgun version but not too many for the ak. I was thinking about getting them on my next glock and possibly my AK, sight standardization could be a good thing?

I had a bad experience with the XS sight (not the big bot) and my Arsenal SAM-7. I had it installed and the rifle kept shooting way to the left even at 15 feet (a few inches) no matter how far I adjusted it. I was also using a Krebs peep sight. It was impossible to zero so I sent it back to Arsenal thinking that it was something with the rear sight block. They eventually returned it to me with the original sights reinstalled and a letter stating that the sights I had installed were not compatible with their rifle. Maybe it was just the combination of the Krebs sight and the XS tritium post that caused the problem. Or maybe Arsenal didn't want to try to adjust aftermarket sights. It's also possible that the gunsmith that installed the front sight screwed it up somehow. Either way, it was a big waste of money for me. I hope you have better luck.
