I like the looks of these sights, but they sit up so high... are they even usable? Are you modifying the stocks? Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.

The Obzor is a chin weld. I still find it perfectly usable. Very well made and effective optic IMO.

It does sit pretty high on the rifle:

If you think about it, why would NPZ go through all the R&D, man hours and expense involved to make an optic that didn't work? They must have had a plan...remember in Russia, cheek welds you


I find the Rakurs is a little lower and a little more accessible if you're not familiar with Russian optics, but I like Rakurs and Obzor equally well so far. Like LM said they are both well made and effective

Rakurs A1 with adjustable diopter and Rakurs without
