4.0 out of 5 stars Works with modification on Md 59/66 SKS, October 28, 2010

Got this for my Yugo Md 59/66 SKS. Works fine for adjusting windage. But, the tool does not fit the elevation post (the opening on the tool to slide over the post is too small). I filed it out with a flat file (took about five minutes) and now it works for the elevation post. Would have given it five stars if it fit right out of the box. However, it does now work well and, at the current price of $5, it is a good deal (at least to me).

4.0 out of 5 stars Ak/SKS front sight adjustment tool, February 24, 2011

I read some of the reviews prior to buying this item. A few of them were negative, things that are to be expected and the tool braking before it is able to perform the task it was designed for. I would attribute that to anomaly problems with front sights etc.

I have a Saiga AK, straight from the factory it was shooting around a foot or so to the left at 50 feet. I bought this tool and it performed the function it was designed for, it is slightly difficult to move the front post for windage, it just takes some strength. I have no complaints, my item worked for its intended purpose, and my rifle isn't a special case so I encountered no problems. You should note however if you are one of those people with a "problem" rifle or more specifically a problem front post, you might want to choose another tool that is higher grade metal or harder. I read a review saying that the part of the tool that pushes the sight just smashed or flattened. That part comes tapered or coned. Mine after 2 uses has noticeable flattening.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not fit AK, April 24, 2010

I got this for my Romanian GP-1975 AK-47. The tool works fine for adjusting elevation, but the hole is not large enough to fit for adjusting for windage. There's also not enough room to drill the hole out so that it can fit. It does fit for a Yugoslavian SKS.

I searched around online and found a lot of people with the same complaint, so apparently it's a common problem, not just limited to the model of weapons I own.
