Anyone have any experience with the Ukranian sights they'd like to share?

I have the Parts Unknown Model # ST12B3N--Improved New Style Long Range-- which a copy of the Sharps-Borchardt LR sight on my M1878 .45-2 7/8" Borchardt.

It is very well made & well worth the cost.

Unfortunately, there is no web site to order on-line.

I see Buffalo Arms now carries the Ukranian Soule sights, among others. I to would like to know how they stand up against others.

I have two of the Ukranian long range sights mounted on two different rifles. One a Ped '74 and the other a C.Sharps '74. Purchased through Buffalo Arms. Had them a couple of years and they have proven to be reliable and functional if not as highly finished as my MVA sights. I have had no problems with them so far. Randy

Bridger, I have recently started purchasing sights from Ron Heilman and use them on a Ballard and several Browning BPCR's. They are tight and well made with no side to side or fore and aft movement. A rear sight for long range will cost less than $300. His front sight utilizes Lyman inserts and has the bubble level enclosed like the Baldwin front sight. When my RB gets back from being rebarreled I will buy another set of Heilman sights for that rifle. Rbump
