Czech army surplus night sights-VZ58

Those tritium sights from NEA are far from great. Just bought three sets and had two burn out/fail inside 100 rounds.

WoW!
Really?
Thanx for the info before I dropped that cake on it. Any one else have this issue?
 
my first one was nice and bright when it arrived but soon became dim to the point it was unuseable. NEA was great about sending a free replacement however and its holding up just fine. Does anyone know if the fiber optic front is a similar width to the tritium? I may go that route instead

Bah, these have been here for a while anyways with no rears yet either.


Optics Planet has AK (which will fit) tritium front and rear for 140$. But dont ship to Canada

Same thing for me.The tritium on mine has already burned out and they are not even 4 months old.All im left with this a non/very dull glowing front sight post that is even a little thicker then the factory one.:(

After all the other NEA stuff i bought which has performed great,i expected more.Not impressed.

I've switched to the fibre optic front, it appears to be the same physical size as the tritium, but "looks" bigger due to the entire front sight glowing green under illumination. I haven't measured it so I can't say for sure.
