AK line gun sight correction tool

Correction of infantry guns after maintenance 2 or after black dyeing is quite a hard work. Previously, there were a number of accurate, modern methods and tools for gun correction, however, which required costly infrastructure construction, resulting in high calibration costs and low fieldwork. Therefore, the method of calibrating guns with beer is still applied quite popular but it takes a large amount of ammunition, the calibration staff must have shooting skills, and natural, weather and climate conditions.

From the fact that the technical staff of Warehouse K895 (Department of Military Weapons) has researched and manufactured successfully 'AK line gun sight correction tool' (see photo) to improve the quality of gun adjustment.

The device applies the principle using an optical viewfinder to position the straight line from the barrel of the barrel to the reference point on the calibration beer. Then look at the gun's viewfinder, if this line of sight deflects from the calibration point on the calibrated beer, move the viewfinder details so that the line looks at the viewfinder exactly on the benchmark on the beer. At that time, the gun was adjusted to the right viewfinder.

In order to implement the above calibration method, in addition to using standard glass for the positioning of the barrel axis, there are some details as follows: Calibration price is made on the base of the gun and the price of the gun K53 ; fitting pipe to fit standard glass to the tip of the barrel; vam and wrench to correct the viewfinder.

When conducting calibration: Gun clamps are firmly fixed on the rack; Install standard glasses on the barrel. A person looks at the standard glass, notifies the result to the second person to adjust the range, direction (on the correction price) to ensure that the cross point on the glass coincides with the cross on the corrected beer. Fix the gun, watch the viewfinder on the target, if the line of sight is wrong with the calibration point on the calibrated beer, use vam (calibrate the viewfinder) and wrench (adjust the head of the fly) so that the line looks over the viewfinder It is okay to coincide with the benchmark on beer.

Thanks to the line-of-sight correction tool, gun calibration efficiency increased to 400%, the rate of gun adjustment after satisfactory was about 85-90%, reduced 65% ammunition consumption and was very convenient to deploy the surface correction. The cost of producing products is very cheap, because it makes use of many existing Level 5 equipment in the unit. The initiative was awarded the first prize by the General Department of Technology in the contest of technical innovations in 2009. The product was produced by the Military Department as a tool to calibrate guns for the entire army.
