I have recently acquired a Brno ZKK 600 in 7 x 57 and looking for instructions to adjust the pop up pee sight. Have only found a later copy of the rifle manual that does not cover the pop up peep sight.

Over time there were a few variations to the pop up sight.

All the ones I've seen had the aperture leaf mounted in a dovetail and were drift adjustable for windage. Some used a locking screw while others were just held in position by friction. Most, not all, had graduations marked on the sight body to show how far across you had moved the aperture leaf.

All had a screw adjustment for elevation.
 
I have one coming next week in .270 with the peep, first one for me as well.
 
Giday Brnofan and welcome to the A H forums and yes adjust windage with rear sight and elevation with front.

To adjust windage, loosen lock screw (if fitted). Move leaf left or right, re-tighten and test. Repeat til zeroed.
To adjust elevation, turn adjustment screw clockwise or counter clockwise as required. (May have some graduation marks as a guide), but primarily trial and error.
 
Brnofan, welcome to the AH forum!
It might help if you could attach a photo so we would have an idea which peep sight you have.
 
Welcome to AH and the posting side! This forum has a wealth of information from some extremely knowledgeable folks, enjoy!
 
Welcome!! Let us know if you need any assistance with the rifle import permits, we would be glad to assist you with that.
 
Many thanks for responses everyone.

Thanks for photo Warren.

Hello Brnofan,

I apologize for my delay in responding.
Only just now did it dawn on me (I have a thick skull) that your question about the Brno 602 was your first post here in the forum.

So then…..
Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

I do not know the answer to your question.
However, my favorite hunting rifle (that I can afford) is indeed the Brno 602 Magnum in .375 H&H.
At the moment it’s around 6:00 am here in Namibia.
And, I’m about to skid sideways into the kitchen for some bacon, eggs, granny biscuits and coffee.
Then into the baaki with said Brno to begin the day.

At some stage I will begin posting my hunt reports in the section of the forum that is set aside for such topic.

Cheers for now,
Velo Dog.
 
Just came across a photo of the pop-up sight disassembled. This might help you visualize how the adjustments work.

The aperture slides in a grove at the back. The lines are as a reference. The screw nearest the aperture tightens the grove thereby locking the aperture. The screw at the other end controls elevation. Simple up down.
 
First time posting here and sorry for hijacking this thread. Does anyone knows where can i get a peep sight like this? Please let me know as i just pick up a 72 model but misding the peep.
 
Welcome @Brnofan. Good to have another Brno/CZ fanatic on this forum.

Search and ask until you get one. Far too many cretins removed them for no good reason or lost the actual peep because they fiddled with the sight and failed to properly tighten it afterwards. Some were apparently being made in the U.S. for a short period but … you may have to settle for a NECG backsight which locks into the same position on the receiver bridge as the back scope mount.
 
G'day @243Fan . First off, does your ZKK have the rear action bridge milled for the pop-up peep sight? If so then you only need the sight, spring and pins as shown in the above photos. Your best bet is to ask around any of the NZ gunsmiths. Its amazing what parts some may have hidden away in a long forgotten box. Apart from that, its a matter of keeping your eyes out on any of the used gun websites. The parts come up every so often, one (minus the pins, springs etc) was advertised on ozgunsales up until a couple of days ago.
Until recently, Triple River Gunsmithing used to make and fit these to CZ550 as part of CZ USA custom workshop. They had all the jigs etc to both make the parts and mill out the receiver. Unfortunately Triple River have closed down.

Until this guy posts something on pay it forward free I would avoid him at all costs.

If it hasn't sold by next week I might be interested. Stock would have to be changed along with some other items. I'm already having a 416 Rigby built so money is a tad bit tight.

Hey pal! I'll take all the .375 bullets if they're available.
Thanks!
