    I have a I.O. ak and the rear sight block is tilted. Anyone have any experiance fixing this problem. The rear sight has already been redrilled to try to fix it. Do redrill it some more or would it hurt to take the pin out and put a tack weld on it. I am new to aks are there any other sight options.

    Krebs also makes something similar

    Or you can buy a TWS Gen2 hinged top cover and extend your sight radius

    Or tech sights

    There are several options. You can also try and fix your issue.
