I'll let you know how mounting a Soviet style AK side rail goes
Agreed, just thought we can help each other out with upcoming hiccups, trying to mount Russian side rails comes to mind. We are the first in country to have these so it will be a learning experience as to mods
The Chinese military did develop an optic for the T81, which just clamped onto the receiver. Don't know where you would be able to find one thou. If you google type 81 scope, some airsoft sites do sell it, but don't think it is genue Chinese suplus. Any one with any experiences?

Basic google search I did, the first few pics are what I'm talking about.
Remember what mommy said, if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything at all
Mine is going to get the nothing treatment as well. Just going to shoot as much cheap surplus through it as I can.
If someone comes up with a cheap way to get a rail on the top of the receiver I may put an Aimpoint T1 on it or something but that's about all I can think of that this thing would need. I have fancy rifles in 223 and 300BLK for being tacticool, this is just to shoot and shoot and shoot, I hope I can wear it out.
I'd determine what type of wood is used for the furniture first and go buy some. There will be a trial and error process trying to get the stains tinted/mixed to the correct color and you probably don't want to be sanding down your furniture 5-6 times during this process. If you're looking to match the rifle original dark colors I doubt an off the shelf tint is going to work very well, buy some browns, reds, and blacks and start mixing and experimenting.
A blend of Soya sauce and red wine works well.
I'm 99.9% certain it is typical "Chu" wood furniture; which I have refinished many times. I have done a number of AK/SKS/CZ/VZ "Soviet Red AK" finishes with the aforementioned products, looks amazing, if you appreciate that style.
I look forward to posting a series of YouTube videos detailing the process.
Ditto, will have to see the light coloured wood in the flesh but not overly fond of it from pics.
