AK scope & Mount?

[02ducky]

New to the AK scene and was wondering if anybody can recommend a cheaper site and scope mount for my AK. Kinda looking for something with a red dot and where the hell do I mount the site on the wood.

Thanks everyone!

It slides into where the rear sight leaf goes and goes over the reciever cover and screws into where the stock bolts into the rear tang.

The other option is to drill into the side of the reciever and rivit in a scope rail,then your limited to comblock style scopes and rails.

There are also several good options here.

UTG bolt on rail and scope mount.

Did that come with the screws Jim?
Or did you do the nut and bolt trick??

By far Jim's siderail is the cheapest way to go,unless of course you want to go all out Rachel Ray on it and have the "correct" one for it

Has the Ultimak option gone out of style?

Thats also a good option as well(still in style too )
But I prefer something thats more solidly mounted and holds zero better.
I have seen some that are rock solid and hold zero quite well ,but they are pricy.
Different flavors for different budgets.

The ultimak is nice but not a quick to remove an optic if batteries take a crap and it's much easier to remove vs no gloves and gas tube optic.

Actually rachael was involved with the install. He's slowly learning no TALKING when i am using anything with moving parts
This was mounted utilizing incl hardware. I am probably going to change the hardware out for something a bit longer with sturdier nuts. the stuff that came with the rail is sub zero on the hardness scale.
As an afterthought iprobably could have done a few plug welds OR used RR's spot welder. Then again not knowing what mixed material utg has ????

yeah it was an easy install but the hardware did seem a little cheesy. as for a cheap red dot and mount this would be a good option
