Rob's Review of Midwest Industries Ak Side Rail Scope Mount 30mm For Ak-47
I love my MI Gen1 30mm RDS sidemounted scope rail that I use with my Aimpoint ML2 and decided to try the Gen1 30mm scope rail also. Taking it on and off always held zero and is rock solid.
I like the simplicity of the Gen1 rails and most importantly, how low they can mount a scope. Cheekweld is hard enough with the AK folding stocks and you dont want a scope mounted way high.
The MI Gen 1 30mm scope rail fits the bill BUT, know that your choice of scoped will be VERY LIMITED. My Zeiss 1X4, Swarovski 1X6, and Kahles 1X6 will not fit since the eyepiece, especially the magnification ring, is too big and will not fit!
I know for a fact that Nightforce 1X4 and 1X8 scopes will work since they are particularly small for an LPVO. The magnification ring is 1.60" and it's length is also perfect. You will need a scope no bigger than the 1.60" at the magnification ring and no longer than 10" total.
