That's a pretty slick setup, but where can I get one of those rear peep (or was it ghost ring?) sights he had on his rifle at 0:51?

That's an interesting sight. It isn't the same as they have in the video. The longer sight radius has got to improve accuracy, though.

What makes it interesting, is that it appears they make the guide rod and recoil spring a part of the sight.

Yes the rear site is pressed in tight and extends sight radium about 9" I believe?

And it holds zero well? I ask, because of the action being attached to the sight.

Only the spring is attached to the sight that is wedged into the rear trunnion and set screwed.

My brother is very satisfied with the sight on his AKM.

Reminds me of the low pro kvar mount, just not as beefy looking. I dont understand how the locking mechanism is better. It only looks to have a handle that swings down to unlock, still looks to use the locking srung bolt with locking block like all the rest. This one just has no way to protect it from catchin you clothes when u carry it, and it swings down front to back. One nice swipe across the chest while carrying it and good bye scope. The mil spec ones the lever pushes into the mount to prevent this then snaps (locks) in. Think about it, you pull up to shoot the knob grabs your jeans or shirt and now your scope is gone or lose.

The MWI mount has a lock on the throw lever that prevents the lever from un-locking and the scope and mount falling off by accident.

CLOSE!

Ahhh, I see, now that is a horse of a different color. I might need one now, the lock seems like it would do the trick.
