Is it my imagination, or do the aperture sights lower the accuracy of the rifles? I added one to the SVT40(?), which I thought was extremely accurate before, and suddenly I couldn't hit crap with it. I ended up going back to using iron sights.

The same thing happened for me with the exact same gun.Originally posted by Dead...Again View Post

same
The only gun I use the aperture sights on was the m1a1, because it's sights had such a tight ghost ring that it interfered with acquisition. But, yeah, the dot on the aperture sights is too big for accurate placement: it covers half the guy at any range...whereas you can pinpoint the iron sights and know right where they will hit.Comment

Apeture sight with the SVT is teh suck.
It works well with what Skud says and it is great for medium range with the thompson.Comment

I use the aperture sight with the M1 Carbine and love it.

Yeah, I think that's what I meant, above (I mixed it up with the m1a1 [still no good with these old guns], which I used a scope on). The carbine is the only one I use the aperture sight on.Originally posted by Apache Warrior View Post

It is my second favorite gun, after the PPSH.

I too use the aperature sight on the Carbine.
I tried it on other guns, with disappointing results.
Some use it on the M1, but I've stuck with the carbine and
don't regret it.

I use it on the SVT fine, tap tap tap, dead.Comment

I like the aperature on all weapons that have the option. One example that comes to mind is the Gewehr. Sucked without aperature, rocked with it.

I also have had good luck with it on the Thompson and the PPSH. But, I prefer the drum magazine over it so I do not use it on either any more.

You know it's silly since we have no radar but, I love using the flash suppressor on the m1
Speaking of M1's I'm curious if anyone here is a member of the Civilian Marksmanship Program. I hear you can get M1 fairly cheap through em....Comment

I like the m1 the most of most guns. I also use it with an apature sight.Comment

I used to shoot my Uncles M1 Carbine. He kept it after he returned from WWII.
