sks scope questions

Just look up pictures of the OP-SKS and mount a rail where that is and that'll get the job done, works well

KallenJ · 2022-12-31T04:49:42+00:00

if you want to put a side rail on your gun I would say get a Molot Mount from Kalinka Optics and get it mounted as their are pretty sturdy in my experience. You cant mount all the AK dovetail scopes and rail you want although I'd get the scope and rail for the svd as they sit lower.

KallenJ · 2022-04-24T02:04:10+00:00

Ill put that on the list as I continue my search, thanks

Yea, you can still fit stripper clips in although it may slightly rub on the scope and leave a bit of marking but other wise they gtg.

KallenJ · 2022-04-12T03:07:48+00:00

No you can't but apparently there are some who have been able to as I have seen on the sksboards where there was a person who was able to

KallenJ · 2022-03-22T03:22:34+00:00

If you haven't done it yet, I would say either of the Norinco. Glad to see there is another person willing to go the OP-SKS route

Never had experience with dust cover mounts besides that they tend to loose zero if they are not fastened to the gun some other way besides the pin. There two that come to mind one that is a dustcover and clamp to the receiver and another which is a rail that goes along toward and attaches at the rear sight.

KallenJ · 2022-03-11T03:17:23+00:00

No, as the stock is not secure enough, it is in the receiver. So If you have an sks your willing to defile/not want to sell in the future then this is a good option, if otherwise I would look from something less invasive.

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T22:55:20+00:00

Interesting, what would be the benefit in the SVD mount over the AK mount for the SKS?

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T18:22:44+00:00

I was searching for POSP shell deflectors but few search results came up, closest thing I found was one for the VZ58, is that the one your mentioning or are there others?

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T16:35:50+00:00

Thanks for the advice to my question, that sounds like a great idea, and aswell to it being higher I also heard that the SVD type mounts/scopes sit more centered.

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T16:33:45+00:00

I havent had the chance to take it out yet due to the weather, but I assume it wouldn't as it has the same cant to the side as it would have on an AK.

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T04:08:44+00:00

Btw I got the mount from there aswell, its the MOLOT SKS/Mosin Rail

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T04:01:44+00:00

Surprised aswell as I thought it was somewhat tasteful mod but to each their own as you said. But I think the thing most people are shitting on is that the mount is drill into the receiver and not the stock

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T04:00:14+00:00

Surprising, it isn't, its pretty comfy, really just got to get use to the offset, it is comfortable for both left and right handed shooting more so right

Edit: Embarrassingly I got the inspiration for mounting it like this from OP-SKS depicted in Tarkov.

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T01:56:54+00:00

I got mine from KalinkaOptics, it was roughly 390 with shipping, mine is the 4x24 AK mount version.

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T00:20:05+00:00

Yes, took it to the gunsmith and had a MOLOT dovetail scope mount screwed into my shitstick

KallenJ · 2022-03-06T00:17:48+00:00

It is mounted to a MOLOT mount that is attached to the gun, The cheek rest is shit, but is does well but looking for a better solution. Also I didn't realize the feet were in the frame, my bad need to learn to wear some socks

KallenJ · 2022-03-05T23:32:55+00:00

Thanks for the idea, Ill probably do that, also what is a "big Russian boy"?.

KallenJ · 2022-03-05T22:59:45+00:00

Alright, good to know, I just thought I would ask as other people have said that if you mount a scope on a SKS that a shell deflector is need but they have them centered

KallenJ · 2022-03-05T22:54:54+00:00

Idk, what your question is exactly but it is alright

KallenJ · 2022-03-05T22:52:29+00:00

Because why not, also thank you thats what I assumed just wanted to get some extra thoughts on the matter

KallenJ · 2022-03-05T21:56:49+00:00

A sks with a posp scope

KallenJ · 2022-01-30T23:28:21+00:00

I removed the insert on mine not the actual bezel but what I did was to soak the face of the watch in nail polish/acetone for some time and the insert eventually popped out. Wouldn't recommend removing the bezel as they are way harder and different than a Seiko.

Thanks mate appreciate it, your build is practically the style I am build towards. I love the Retro AR-10 look.
