I would go ahead and get the mount you want and see how it fits. I don't doubt that people have had to do some shimming or other modification to make everything line up, because the AK family of firearms doesn't have a high level of standardization. But see if you get lucky or can mod the mount before you have to resort to drilling out the rivets on your gun

HB was thinking that the Tromix guns had them removed with the holes welded in, most of them probably did. Yours still has the side rail which is rare, I'm assuming for a Tromix gun. With that, you would be all set with any version of a side rail mount This is better tho, for a red dot

Post a picture of where the rear sight usually is, and I'll tell you how to mount a section of picatinny rail on there

Here is the Russian one with a scope on it Cool !!

Side rails are lame. I would do a scout type mount especially for a red dot. There are several https://www.centuryarms.com/sc1302.html One idea for a replacement rear sight block integrated with the gas tube: http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/71515-mounting-a-fastfire-type-sight/?p=695827 The Russian Armicon: https://www.legionusa.com/armacon-ak-rear-sight-picatinny-aluminum.html

It is the Rifle Dynamics stock adapter. It is really a great design because it raises the stock to a level close to the bore axis. It also uses the tang AK for support https://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/stock-parts/stock-hardware/adapter/ak-47-m4-stock-adapter-prod55411.aspx

Which we know thanks to Distal Radius and his ability to smuggle rifles and stuff into an x-ray lab http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/37889-x-rays-of-saiga-12-magazines/?p=891985 http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/37889-x-rays-of-saiga-12-magazines/page-3

Unless they put aluminum in there for reinforcement, but I doubt it. I'm sure the extra step of setting a piece of metal in the form before they mold it is expensive, but it is necessary, so they are foolish. Considering the leverage that a 10 round mag has, coupled with the weight when fully loaded, coupled with the recoil, that plastic lug will eventually snap right off. And compare that to both the 5 and 8 round Russian mags, that both have the metal

The wire part doesn't affect anything, it is the part that contacts your shoulder, and that has enough surface area. So I would go ahead and do it. It will be great, and folders are cool

No, the 930 is good, at least it is auto. Putting it into the pump was the lame thing

You can search "picatinny rail" and there are many sellers of them, you will find different lengths, different mounting hole patters etc.

Sorry about the welchers bro. Did you have a schematic drawing of it? I didn't know about it. Now I'm curious about what it was

They call it a 26 round shotgun, but that is with Aquila shells, which is moot. So 15 rounds of real ammo, 5 in each tube. https://www.gunsamerica.com/blog/small-package-big-bite-new-iwi-tavor-ts-12-shotgun/

That was done by Cobra's Custom I don't know if he is still doing that, his page hasn't had any updates for a while http://forum.saiga-12.com/index.php?/topic/90388-ak-saiga-vepr-reliability-service/ He was known to do excellent work and was an innovator with a lot of the S12 mods
