Not sure about the Ak version but the M203 has 2 different sights on it. Would it be possible to set it up to allow you to actually use one of them. I'd suggest the flip sight since that is the one that most of the 203 gunners used in my unit and its already modeled :)

Only one problem with the flip-sight, Omni: it's worthless. There's absolutely no frame of reference for targeting. The peep sight (mounted on the carrying handle of the M-16/M-203) is slower but significantly more accurate.

The flip sight is accurate. you just have to get used to firing it. I admit I perfered the side leaf sight(hope i'm not getting the names mixed, I was always the MGer) when I shot as I liked the rifle butt against my shoulder. However i'd say a majority used the flip sight as it was quicker just as accurate and a little less tiring to fire repeated rounds since the rifle is supported off the LBV/LBE more. Either way it doesn't matter which site to use just though the flip sight would be easier as you don't have to worry about handling the increments on the leaf sight.
