Got my new to me Para, barrel was cut from 21 to 17.75 inch barrel then fitted with stg 58 flash suppresor. Do I use the 150 meter sight or flip to the 250 meter sight when zeroing at 100 yds. Thanks in advance for any help, I know this has been asked 87 times.

I believe with those you zero at 150m using the 150m aperture. They aren't meant to be zeroed at 100 yards. Those are calibrated for 21" barrels, though, as I recall, so maybe it'd be best to zero at 250m with the 250m aperture.

Nice Para. I’m still loving my PAC neutered gun, best 525 bucks I ever spent. Went out yesterday and attempted some fair distance plate shooting. Nailed the ones under 200, but further ones got off easy.

Heard from a reliable source that they tend to 'walk' shots upwards as they heat up. Just fyi.

I've got a Para on the way to me now and will do the 50/200 zero.
However, mine has the "Holland" rear sight with only one aperture. Regardless of sight types I think a 50/200 yd. zero makes a lot of sense on a Para at least for me. I kinda think of it as a giant PDW, lol. |

That's the standard combo device on the Para, not an StG-58 Stoll device. No worries though, as the combo device works and looks better on that.
I use the 150m setting on my 21" Para and zero at 200. I don't bother to use the 250m setting. |

I ended up zeroing at 50 yds using the 150 meter sight, and that allowed me great accuracy out to 250 meters which is further than these old eyes would engage something anyway, no problems with aiming low, I started out with the front sight almost all the way down and was hitting high, brought the sights up and was getting great groups, windage was dead on. shooting this is more impulse rather than a sharp slap. love my new rifle.
