I picked this up at a gun store yesterday. I don't know a thing about these guns other then their a blast to shoot. I had to use about half a bag of patches to get it halfway clean, this thing was DIRTY. First, is that a weaver base on top? Second, how in the world do I adjust the rear sights on it? If anyone can give me any more info on it, GREAT!!! What are some good sites to look at for furniture and stuff like that? Is there any good sites that show how to take it apart for cleaning? Here's some pics I just took. Oh, exactly what do I have anyways?

you have an hk91 style rifle made from surplus hk or portugese fmp parts (and us made compliance parts) on an aluminum receiver mfg'd by dan coonan industries.  it was marketed some years back by fac inc.

the rear sight is windage adjustable via the screw on the right side.  the drum is rotatable and the numbers correspond to range (1=100m, 2-200m, etc.)....if you need to change elevation, you'll need a special tool (hk dealers will have this) to rotate the drum relative to the sight base.

yes, that is a weaver rail up top.....

for lots of good info....check out www.hk91.com or www.hkpro.com.  hth

I hope you didn't pay more than 300 bucks for it.

Wow, thanks alot. That helps me out alot on the sights. So will things such as bipods, grips, stocks, etc, basically anything that fits an HK91 fit this rifle also?

Yes except for the bipod and handguard (wide).  In order to install a light bipod, you need a wide handguard, which needs to be modified in order to fit the oversized cast aluminum receiver.

You can look around on gunbroker for an already modified wide handguard or you can try to modify it yourself.
