thanks for the pic. looks good....and you had no problem with a shell hitting the front of your scope? my sks ejects staight up once in awhile so thats why i had to use a deflector.
i may try that too.

if you dont mine DAR, i will answer his question.
same place where DAR 701 and i picked up the SKS scope mount ($9.50).
ww w.futong.com. you would have to get rid of the space between the Ws to get to the site.
the scope comes with rings and mount for $39.50 but they are out of stock . they do have others .

Fits nice and tight, no movement of the mount. The bolt is unimpeded and the rifle runs just fine. I still would prefer a side mount, kalinka style but that would have to wait till I get some more mad money. This setup will do for the summer. I only shoot non-corrosive so I leave the bolt assembly in the rifle when I clean, otherwise the reciever cover mount would get pretty annoying pretty quick when shooting corrosive ammo.
Hawktech 30mm High 9-11mm Dovetail Rings with a Fitco 3-12x44 Side Focus illuminated reticle mildot scope with 1/4" per click target turrets. Total cost, 92 dollars for scope and rings tax paid shipped to my door. This setup fits perfectly on the TOZ-78 and works like a charm!
One problem with the side mounts is they might cover the rifles serial numbers.
The side rails are attached with screws right? Then the mount can be removed and the serial numbers presented in the extremely rare case of a check by a police officer. As long as you are not drilling the holes through the serial number then you should be ok.
