View Full Version : Where I can buy a taller FAL rear sight?

I have a metric FAL with an 18" barrel that shoots low with the front post all the way down. I have to run the rear sight up to 500M to get it to zero at 100yards. So it appears that I need either an Israeli or an Indian rear sight (I understand these are about the same height?) and an L1A1 would be too tall.

I'd really like a folding Indian sight since I use a scope on this FAL.

Anyone know where I can buy a folding Indian rear sight?


Here's some pics of the subject FAL:

No ideas?

Oh well, I think what I may do is a 200y Battle Zero with my current sight and the slider all the way up at the 600m setting. Then I can slide it all the way down and out of the way when I use my scope. When I want to use the irons I'll slide it all the way up. I can't make out anything past 200yards anyway.

Maybe I'll come across an Indian folding sight someday.
