Please measure features in attached sketch, post results in inches, include make and model, please.
Measure A, B, and Diameter.
Any AK-pattern rifle, any caliber, is welcome, from Saiga to "Dragunov" to AKM.
Thanks.

One more item- measure distance from back edge of front sight post to back edge of rear sight notch.
Спасибо!  Thanks!

OK, On my romanian AK47

A = .1/2"
The dia. of the windage drum is 3/8"
The center of the windage drum is set back 1/2" from the front of the sight. I think this is what you were asking for measurment B.

First two responders with:
*AK front sight post overall length (bottom of threaded shaft to top of front sight post; should be well over 3/4 inch)
*AK BSZ in meters
*make, model of AK (any type)
get free parts.
