SKS scope suggestions?

What about this one: http://brassstacker.com/sks/sks-see-thru-scout-scope-mount.html.

This mount will NOT work for NORINCO SKS's. We are actively working to make that accommodation.
 
Well I put a very expensive Magwedge Kwik-rail on my SKS.
I have old eyes that need something and I like reticules, not so much red dots.
I've now put maybe 300 rounds through and 3 cleanings and it's still holding zero.
Two draw-backs. Stripper clips are a no-go so another $40 bucks each for Tapco detachable magazines.
I don't mind having to play with allen wrenches and piece of doweling to get the pin out. I clean my SKSs after each outing.
BUT most of all, I'm scared of the longer dust cover and rail pin that is sent with the Kwik-rail as it's a little piece of light aluminum. Every recoil of an SKS is trying to push the dust cover out the back end. The original was hardened steel. I really wonder just how rounds a skinny piece of aluminum will handle before I get a dust cover embedded into my forehead.

So tomorrow it's off to get a hardened steel bolt and nut. May not be pretty, but a whole lot safer.
(Or am I just paranoid?)
FWIW,
Ted

Hardware for Kwik rail is still steel, I am not sure where you get the idea it is aluminum.
