Videos tagged with AEK Irons

This video discusses the effective use of AEK iron sights, contrasting common but less effective sighting methods with a compressed six o'clock hold. The instructor explains how traditional 'cut the target in half' methods with iron sights can lead to obscurity, especially on smaller targets or at distance. A six o'clock hold, similar to old Soviet doctrine, is recommended for improved accuracy and target visibility, particularly on difficult-to-see targets. The video also touches on the performance of short-barreled rifles in calibers like AEK, noting less muzzle velocity loss compared to 5.56mm.
