For whatever reason, Quickboost has produced British, German, American, and Japanese gunsights, but never Russian ones. Northstar Models has the following VVS gunsights in their line of accessories:

PAK-1, in 1/72, 1/48, and 1/32:

PBP-1a, in 1/72 and 1/48:

PBP-1b, in 1/72, 1/48, and 1/32:
http://northstarmodels.com/product/172-soviet-gunsight-pbp-1b/

Northstar's service is very fast, well packed for shipment, and economical. I bought one package of each type (4 pcs per package) in 1/72 scale plus some La-5 wheels and received my order within a week; postage to Canada with tracking was only $5.00. In 1/72, I'll probably need a microscope for the gunsights, but at least I have them, plus the satisfaction of supporting a company who supports VVS modelbuilding.

Didn't you know, John, that the Soviets didn't really do that much during the war. They just waited for D-Day. It is nice to see someone doing these VVS sights - I just noticed them recently, on eBay. There on my watchlist now.
