Picked this item up at a gun show and after some trimming and work got it mounted,First thing off was the color, the finish on the mount seems durable enough but color was much darker than the parkerizing on my rifle, that aside with the scope mounted on the rail and with the set screws (2) at the back to stablize the mount tightened there was still a small amount of shake at the front of the mount, after some shimming under the front hold down clamp I was able to remove most of it... with the mounting done and ready and it really did look tough, I was off to the range.. at the range I set my targets and fired a total of 6 rounds in 3 round groups, upon my 6th round my brand new scope fell to the concrete firing line below my feet! The rivets that secured the rails to the top cover had pulled completely away from the top cover dropping my scope with rail attached.... I picked up my scope (and ego) and left the range... I know know AK Owners don't have many options but Pass on this one.
