Are there any options on the m85 as far as different sights go? What kind of accuracy are you getting out of them?

I'm not an AK guy, so I cannot answer first part of your question.

I can tell you that my M85NP with Aimpoint T1 has been out to 402 yards.  I can hit 12" steel and 100% IPSC targets.  I say I'm hitting around 60% at that range, which is a lot better than what I was expecting from a 10" barrel.

I never shot for groups as minute of man was good enough for me.

I just picked up the M90NP a few weeks ago and I have not shot it yet.  I'll probably put another RDS as I like weight savings and compact design.

You can do this. Gut an M4 sight and install in the gutted PAP rear. Makes for a real nice sight picture.

After removing the white paint from the rear sight blades, I'm getting much better results with the irons. I'll always recommend trying that out before gutting the sights from the dust cover. Once you do that, you're in the rabbit hole, and it isn't a simple fix to revert back if you change your mind.



That said, that A2 AR sight modification looks awesome!
