Gen 3 rails for the SKS are almost ready to sell as well .... just sayin'

I really like the looks of your Gen 3 mount. Have you ever thought of incorporating a back up peep sight in the mount that would work with the front sight? Something similar to the one M14.ca uses in their CASM mount?

I'm looking for suggestions for a front mounted reflex sight for Tapco Intrafuse stock. PS I'm pretty colour blind with red

Does anyone have the Razor scout mount and would be willing to take a picture of what the backup iron sight picture looks like with something mounted on the rail? I think I'm leaning towards that mount but I'd like to be sure the iron sights are usable before dropping that much on a small piece of aluminum.

1+ I've been debating the magwedge or the scout. I prefer to use stripper clips and only want to mount a dot sight but geez 80 buck for a 1 of steel I wanna be sure lol.

Cowitness barrel mount. You need a fairly lowdown red dot for this to work. UTG MNT-BR0055 mount with 4 extra screws for sturdiness, M4 0.7mm.

My SKS is the big one, the others are night hog hunters in the USA (looks like Bushnell TRS-25). It will spoil your finely tuned barrel harmonics, yes.

Edit: This is the other form of SKS cowitness in its fakedness:

gen 2.5 KwikRail

For the economically inclined, we now have our gen2.5 SKS rails ready to sell .... here.

 

[nelsonm64]

Nice Price! will definitely be getting another for a future build...

 

[MagWedge Industries]

Thought I would share this recent RavenEye pic with you ....

looks great. consider making one for the VZ58 - you'd have a buyer with me for sure

This thread is 7 years old and #293 posts.
I would not normally scope a SKS, but I picked up a SKS-D and without need for a stripper clip I thought a low power or red dot scope may be the way to go.
What is presently the best solidly mounted SKS scope out, perhaps forward mounted.

Thanks

Here is my sks with Magwedge . Nice people to deal with.

Isn't that scope 5-6 times the value of the rifle?

My sks build, Kodiak rail and Barska 1-4x IR AR15 scope

Tried most mounts including the scouts, the Magwedge 2.5 gen seems to be good for the SKS-D models.

Promag one is the best if you want to use the stripper clips as a plan B, actually shown with a Trijicon TA50 3x24 Acog in 7.62x39 reticle BDC. It wasn't cheap but it's as close as I got to a legal AK.

Choate style side mount on all SKSes I have-the most solid, no pins, no need to remove for cleaning, stripper clips friendly, holds zero after thousands of rounds, moves nowhere: 4 mil spec steel screws, and a mount from westrifle-solid steel

allows to mount angle view (to shoot from the cover, from behind the tree/ wall etc):

That's how the one I traded for the SVT40 looked like:
