FAL Rear Sight Options?

FALcoholic · December 31, 2002, 13:53

I've been away from the board for some time. I've searched this topic but have not found the answer to my question. ( This is for my Argentine STG 58 )
1) I noticed that DSA and TNT make Tactical Para Rear Sights with pos. click windage knob and protective side ears. Only about $15 difference in price. Does anyone else out there make this item?
2) Which is the best for your money?
3) Honestly...Is one really that much better than the other?

I would really like one of these sights. I think they are practical and look really great.

Also, I have a HD weaver mount top rail from DSA on my Argentine STG 58 which I also purchased through DSA. I would like to know what you think about the Weaver Base T-Mount for the s.u.i.t. that TAPCO sells.

TNT is Missing in Action and has been unreachable for almost a year.

DSA/Dan at VOW is the only game in town for aftermarket...

Dan@VOW makes both the adjustable for windage & non-adjustable version. Both are nice. The adjustable for windage feature is really only convenience. The standard FAL windage adjustments function with either one. Elevation has to be done with the front only. Dan is supposed to be working on a version with elevation also.
Ed Vanden Berg does a modified AR-15 sight for the FALs. Don't know features or price.

Dan@VOW makes these for DSA. I have gotten a couple and think they are great.

GunThings.com also sells Dan@VOW's Para-type sights. $60.00 for the non-windage adjustable with A1-type apertures, and $75.00 for the windage-adjustable with the A2-type apertures.
