ak side scope mount
Not really interested in what you have on you ak for optics , I am more interested in what you think of the side rail scope mount system. Is it solid , hold zero well , can you use it well with what would apear like a crappy check weld , etc?? And what brand and where did you get it also

Re: ak side scope mount
Poor cheekweld is indeed the issue.
Guy said it takes some getting used to ...
Get an Ultimak.

Low profile mounts are available from Kalinka Optics. It's a little rough to get the top cover off with the mount on.

Re: ak side scope mount
Aren't the side mount rails supposed to be riveted to the receiver??

Re: ak side scope mount
Puts the optics way high. Also, the cheap mounts tend to fall off.
The only way to put optics on an ak is with the ultimak.

Re: ak side scope mount
Watch the gas tube rails, If your gas tube has a little slop in it you're screwed. As for side mounts, I've had 2, they both held zero pretty well after remove and replace. Not familiar with the Ultimak.

Re: ak side scope mount
Supposedly LaRue Tactical is working on an Aimpoint mount that uses the side rail and allows the optic to co-witness with the iron sights.
We shall see.
