yes, i have ordered these from fabsport , best for you to order 2 , total cost is $15 .

installation is very simply, slide the sight forward, hook the deflector on and slide the sight back to lock it in . thats it .

Why 2?

Why 2?

most people has more than one SKS so one for her norinco and one for her russian .

actually fabsports shipping and handling is very reasonable so ordering two for $15 is still very cheap besides if she cant use them both of them then she will always know someone else that could use a deflector . thats why i say buy two .

BTW: these deflector also works with VZ58/CZ858 rear sights with a 2 minute file mod job.

i prefer the ones that attaches to the rear sight so the vibe wont effect the mount .

Curtton is right about the front sight one probably being preferrable...

Now I am confused. I don't know which one to buy. lol. They have them on ebay but I am unsure of them.

this deflector attaches to the rear sight leaf bcos the leaf is spring loaded , it absorb any vibration from striking shell casings .

to install slide the elevation piece forward , hook the deflector and slide the elevation piece back (make sure its lock) , thats it , 5 seconds to install.

you may need to file to fit and i bend the mid part of the deflector to get a better height .

i got the deflectors from fabsports for $15 for 2 shipped.

i dont actually have a scope mounted on my SKS, the deflector was for my cz858.

I wish I could get one, but you bought them all... lol.

so sorry .

about fleabay , ask vendors first before bidding , most are reluctant to ship gun parts/accessories up north . that drives me banana.

 

[Valashnikov]

I will just wait. Sigh. Do you feel guilty at least????

 

[Curtton]
