I've got a FAL built out of an STG-58 kit on an Imbel receiver. It has a DSA railed top cover on it.
I'd like to mount my Kahles ZF-95 6 power scope on the rifle while keeping iron sights mounted. Does anyone make a fold-down rear sight that wouldn't obstruct the sight picture through the scope? Or is there another approach I'm missing here? |

The only fold down rear sight for an FAL type rifle is for the British L1A1 variant.
The L1A1 rear sight is too tall for the front sight on your rifle. Try mounting your scope low but just ahead of the rear sight. Your eye will focus past the rear sight as you look through the scope and you won't really notice the rear sight. I have mounted a 4x scope in this manner and it worked well for me. |

You can add the inch rear sights...but you will need a VERY tall front sight to make up for it. I make my own by drilling the front out and soldering in a new extended pillar. depends on the gun. my cut down to 17" barrel shoot low. i had to put a inch rear on it or i would have to end up using a stub of a front sight.With the inch its perfect. |
