Reviews & Ratings for Midwest Industries AKG2 Yugo Pattern AK-47/ 74 Scope Mount — 14 reviews — Page 1

If you read the instructions it’s fairly easy to set up this rail. There’s also a helpful YouTube video if you need help tightening the mount. Overall it sits perfectly on my zastava m70.

This mount is excellent! locks in tight and holds zero after 300 rounds. Also, the price was good and shipping was FAST!

Midwest industries makes some great products. This agk2 for my yugo is no exception. Fits and works great ,easy to install. I would recommend this to anyone with a yugo ak .

I bought it, I tried to install into my Zastava 308. the fit was a little loose but of course you can always tightened it. The problem is that this device has a secondary latch which unlocks the primary latch that hooks into your rifle. I didn't see a manual on the box so in short, I ended up breaking it because I forced the locking latch open. Which wasnt very hard btw. In fact, I know I will get alot of hate here because Midwest industries is like some sort of god-sent AK brand, but this thing was fragile as heck. It broke within 5 minutes of me having it.
I tried going on youtube to see how and why this thing broke and yes I was able to find the answer there. Overall, Im not happy with this product, not only does it try to over engineer something thats already proven, it also made it more delicate. Include a manual next time so at least I can take the fall for it (and if there was one, make sure its visible!)
For all others, find something russian or a russian replica. Keep it simple, keep it smart.

Installed on a WASR-10, which it says this fits, installed just like the instructions state and it is way off center, only way i can get it remotely close to center is by loosening the nut and then it just shakes around due to being too loose. Go spend more money on something that works.

Bought this for my m70. Secured it onto the rifle and took it to the range. Somehow it started digging into the zpap rail. Yes i made sure it was tightly secured. Still kept digging into the rail. Called MI for support. Its been 2 weeks and still no answer. Trash, go for the rs regulate instead.

The mount seems well made and works well. I bought the Zastava mount first but it was canted to the left quite a bit. This mount is only slightly off center. That said its way better than the Zastava mount and is useable. The pic rail is great. I have it mounted on a Zpap M70. I would recommend.

Absolutely awesome. Zeroed the red dot I mounted. Took the mount off. Took off the red dot. Recounted everything. Beat it up a little with a water bottle. Still held zero. Highly recommend to anyone wanting a red dot or other optic on their ak pattern rifle.

So this mount slides into the optics rail from the rear of the rifle UNLIKE picatinny rails. Also, if you have a side folder like mine you'll have to Uninstall your buttstock which is nothing and slide this optics mount in FROM THE REAR. Be prepared to have blue lock tight before re-mounting your side folding stock. Lastly if you have a side folding stock you're gonna have to drop the folding stock to the bottom screw holes. There are 3 options for zastava m70 folding stock; top middle and bottom. Otherwise you will not be able to collapse your stock. Consider this optics mount semi-permanent as if you want to take it back off you'll have to remove your folding stock again to slide it out of the rail AND when taking the dust cover off; you'll now have to put extra effort to put back on.. no big deal. My last piece of advice is if you're using an eotech or an acog it'll be wise to get a quick detach mount. I am using an eotech exps2-2 which already has a qd mount. Aiming with iron sights without an optic and the mount in the way isn't bad but there is some distortion so be prepared to focus more on your front sight. It'll be wise to zero your iron sights before installing this optics rail. There are limited options for m70's and this is better than other options out there.

Easy to install. Slides right on the factory rail on zastava zpapm70. Not always the case with the world of aks. Easy to tighten and loosen the clamp which is a quick disconnect. Solid construction 6061 aluminum good optic mount
