Mount is quality, and sits low but... - Midwest Industries Ak Side Rail Scope Mount 30mm For Ak-47

If you're thinking about using this mount for what it was made for (running a variable power scope; 1-4x, 1-6x, 1-8x, etc) you won't be able to clear the dust cover with the rear of your scope. This means you have to run the scope REALLY FAR back on the rifle. Unfortunately, this messes with your eye relief, and doesn't allow you to "get up on" the rifle. You have to almost lean back to get proper eye relief. I guess if you use a really small/skinny variable power scope, this might be avoidable, but I tried using this mount with my Primary Arms 1-8 ACSS, and my Vortex Viper PST 1-4x, and neither of them worked on my 7.62x54r 20" VEPR AK. This mount is quality, well constructed, light, and sit's low on the rifle...just doesn't go well with modern variable power scopes.
