A year or so back I added a Ultimak rail and a Trijicon R06X Reflex sight.

For my own amusement, I tacticooled out my AK:
It looks cool, but sucks function-wise. I like the SAW grip, but will probably figure out a better rail/mini-red dot combo.

How can those optics mounted on the gas tube and receiver covers possibly hold a solid zero?
I can't see it... |

The only AK I have held on to is this elderly Arsenal SA93. Bulgarian, milled receiver, and the most accurate AK I've ever shot.

Look closely at my rifle. You can see the two screws just below the reflex sight. Then the bands that clamp it to the barrel are just visible under the back to "notches" at the top of the lower handguard. I used to have a EoTech on the rail. Never had any heat issues but it was too heavy. The Trijicon is lighter and dosen't need batteries so its fits the "bomb proof always works" AK mentality better. |

My rifle is just a "practical" shooter. It looks like crap but it shoots good.
EAJ702, yours is about as pretty as AK's can get. Nice rifle. After market stock? What type of wood? |

And the Answer Is:
"How can those optics mounted on the gas tube and receiver covers possibly hold a solid zero?
I can't see it... " Well, a lot has happened in the last few years. First of all, Ultimak makes the gas tube mount, and it CLAMPS TO THE BARREL. It is n't going anywhere. Very solid. Number 2: The Texas Weapons Systems mount is redesigned, and is now a solid aluminum, milled, dust cover mount that is very solid, bracketed fore and aft, and has a replacement rear release that is tighter than the issue lug. I recently shot a 2-3" group at 200 yards with my AK74 (5.45x39). I also have an Ultimak on my 7.62, but the optic is a Zeiss, and made more for fast & close combat use. It is still rigid as hell. |

@Sharps
How much did your AK cost, excluding optics? |

My Bulgarian AK74 was built with a new condition, unused kit, and my brother parkerized and painted (Norrell)the receiver to match. With the swapped US parts (including the Ironwood stocks), I have about $650-$675 in it, without the TWS mount and Leupold scope.
