If these fit my SAR-1, I want one. I do have a birthday coming up soon for those who might need to know..............

SA, those are the same as the one on my AK. Just need to confirm how accurate they are out to 300m. Past that, I think the issue will be the x39 round, not the scope.

[Drago]

I mainly put the PSO on my AK, because it was just lying there and looked cool. A better idea would be to get the Kalinka side rail (I owned one once & they are great) and then mount whatever optic you want onto the Weaver rail. I had a red dot on mine.

Drago,
the rifle you show on the pic looks pretty awesome.

Thanks! It's just a 'el-cheapo WASR I bought a couple years ago and decided to play with a "black gun" look. This was before I actually built an AR, so I've gotten the whole tacticool thing out of my system pretty much now. The sad thing, is that there's probably more money tied up in aftermarket crap on that AK than what I paid for the original WASR. That MAKO collapsible stock is $100 by itself!

Hell, I didn't know some do not have them. I thought it was a standard part.

This is what they look like. They are called a LPS 4x6 TIP2 scope. I took this one off of my Romanian PSL when I sold it and put it on my WASR. There's also supposed to be a rubber eye cup/eye relief on the end, but I can't seem to find mine.

Cool scope, nice find Drago.

That thing is so beat up the one on my PSL looks mint lol.

FWIW this thread is 6 years old. I think Drago is long gone.

Haha I didn't even see that when I started looking at the posts just saw on the recent topics AK47 scope haha. But the point still stands that scope makes mine look mint haha.

That LPS / TIP2 scope has a Dragunov 1000m reticle designed for the 7.62x54R round... which you all know. But there is a reason they developed the Simonov 400m reticle specifically for the 7.62x39 round. While you can shoot anything with any reticle, the BDCs, turrets, and etc may not be as effective unless you are shooting what it is designed for. So can you shoot x39 with your Drag reticle - yes. But you'll have to manually compensate more than you should. Purchase a scope with the Simonov reticle instead. Or go with a red dot use the 400m Zero rule.

[Lavitias]

Boris you fell for the same thing I did this is a extremely old post and I doubt that guy is still around. Almost hate to say it but maybe a admin should lock this topic.

That is an oldie. I had forgotten that I had owned as WASR-1...... That is the one I sold for $800.00 during the great Obama panic.
