Is your collimator sight the Kobra sight that everyone else sells for about half what you're asking?

[Warbreaker]

Sutro,

No. Kobra, although military in appearance, is a compromise. Kobra is flexible and cost-effective. The parallax is hooded, while the PKA is housed. PKA is uniquely, military. Built VERY robust, with a red dot that made the combat arms training and maintenance team here, whimper, pant, and drool. The dot is real finite at lower settings. The PKA is precision, but you are correct. The Kobra is mighty nice, and at half the price.

Check the latest CenterFire Systems flyer for the PKA... I think you'll find that the price is significantly better...

Trotsky,

Please post the selling price of the PKA that Centerfire Systems flyer promotes.

If viewers desire the same product, less of my cost, such is fair n' fine with me.

My price is exactly what I bought mine for. I bought it two months ago. BGArmory. Money is not an issue with me, other than selling the unit.

If Centerfire Systems sells less, than it would be correct for viewers to value your advice.

Hootbro,

Appreciate the 'six'.

Thank you Homeless - you are a Gentleman. I post these prices because I wish to help my brothers - not to flame someone.

Catalog 0401, page 23 lists the PKA Red Dot at $129 - part #41SCORIF33. Centerfire can be reached at (800) 950-1231.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGH, Trotsky!

Ok. Ya' made a sale for CenterFire Systems. Whaaaaaaaaat? Like I said, I'm not in it for the money. If they've got some PKAs left, well, I believe, I need ta' get another!

Sorry boys, I changed ma' mind. I'm keeping da' optics, n' buying more.

Thank YOU Trotsky, for posting up. Ever thought bout' sales? You make a good pitch'man'.

Homeless :)

[trotsky]

I'm sorry Homeless - I really didn't want to make a sale - just let other folks know about the boatload of optics that Centerfire seems to have gotten. I picked up a PK07 (seven X dot sniper scope) from Bealarus for under $200 - and this thing is GREAT.

The only bad part? A number of the mounts on these optics look to be SVD mounts. This usually means a little screwing around to create a REAR stud instead of a FRONT stud. The PK07 was easy - move one screw :)

Trotsky,

Seen one mounted on a SVD. The unit had a rubber lens cover and the standard eyecup for eye relief. Seems like the best stuff is coming from Belarus. Didn't know CenterFire Systems was into optronics.

Now, I do...

thanks to you

:)

No problem, I just hate it when people want to flame a for sale post. It is like hitting the local Chevy lot and telling all the cutomers that Fords are cheaper down the road.

Hootbro,

Like your moniker. Reminds me of my boyhood days in the swamplands n' elbows of South Carolina. Hootbro was a term to describe waywards, backwards, punchups, family trough romps (picnics), and weardowns (parties/dances). Tonal inflection discriminated just what application the term implied.

I prefer people ta' speak the way they need. I appreciate the concern n' interest of those who believe that what was said could have been said...um...with less elan' (spirit).

When I was in the U.S. Navy, SEAL/SpecWars would send undesirable graduates over to a dark corner at a local haunt. The individuals in the corner haunt were outcasts; cold-blood kings. Flaming the occupants in the corner was allowed, until the flamer ran out of breathe, or imagination of nasty to say. Then the flamer would run out of the haunt with a fork in his hand.

I am not troubled by flaming or flamers. Actually, I find it all quite humorous.

Trotsky did not flame. He just cut right it to the cost.

No harm done.

Again Hootbro, thanks for the 'six'. You're welcome ta' visit the corner, in safety, my friend.

Trotsky,

I just dremel' the studs and bother not ta' add em' elsewhere on the mount-slide. If the clamp crimps proper, the mount won't slide and lacking the stopper stud, allows flexibility.

You are lucky you can make this work for you. There is a good reason for mounting a stop pin, regardless if you can possibly tighten the clamp enough to keep the scope from walking without cracking the clamp (very hard to do), but in any case the actual reason they have a stop pin is to make sure you have the scope positioned in the exact same place on the side plate every time you mount it. If you dont have it on the same exact location, you can loose zero, since every side plate is slightly canted, even minutely, from bore centerline. If the scope is not in the same position the alignemnt is lost. May not be critical enough if your rifle is not accurate, or your ranges are not long. I've had people try to slide PSO's onto Russian rifles from the front, which will put them squarely on the plate, however most find they just cant get the sight clamp tight enough to keep the scope from walking off the rifle, the stop pin is always positioned behind the protrusion of the rifle, since recoil action tries to knock the scope forward. The stop pin stops the scope from moving forward.

[trotsky]

Amen Tantal.... I HATE front mount optics on an AK...

This particular scope has a tapped hole for a rear stop. But just moving the supplied "screw" is really not enough - it's too damn short. A quick trip to a good hardware store produced a metric socket screw that fits well. File the head down a bit, blue, and away you go. Solid and perfect on a Romanian rail :)
