Problem with Ace Pushbutton Sidefolder, pn A500PB
cobravenom39 replied to cobravenom39's topic in Saiga 7.62 X 39
The last pic shows the folder in the closed position. It looks ok, but when the stock is attached it throws the stock 5 degrees into the shooter. It gets worse as I use it. I've probably had it to the range 3 times and 400 rounds with the folder on there. -
Thanks Bro, I bumped this old thread because it pulls up on Google. I want people to make sure they know the options (or lack there of) prior to cutting the tang off.

Wow you bump a 3 year old thread to repost your negative feedback. Pulled up on Google. I want people to know before they make my mistake. I already returned to Midway for credit

This is more of an FYI for people contemplating cutting off their tang. Cut the tang off my Saiga 7.62 in the hopes of using an ACE sidefolder setup which I heard was rock solid. I bought the Ace A500PB with the pushbutton. Almost $100 from Midway. As soon as I got it, I thought it was a tiny bit sloppy, but thought it a compromise since it was a folder. The design looked flawed and had an adjustment screw that corrected the slop. Well, over time it appears that the hardened set screw has warn it's way ..056" of the way deep into the other side of the folder. I keep adjusting it,

I'm NOT impressed with my Ace PUSHbutton sidefolder. In the process of seeing if Tim from Ace is going to clear it up. So far 5 days, 5 emails about the problem, and still not word as to whether or not he will fix it.

I don't think the supply is going to be drying up. They'll start running low again and go for $329. Next round they'll be $250 again.

Midwest Industries Micro Mount Installed!! (Pics)
cobravenom39 replied to cobravenom39's topic in Saiga 7.62 X 39
It isn't that off when there isn't a flash. I kind of like it slightly different shades. The reason for the FDE is to break up the black and camouflage the rifle. Slightly different shades break it up and give it character. I don't have a scale, but it isn't that bad. It's still easy to shoulder and hold up. If I had a heavier optic it would probably put it over the edge, though. -
A handful of the SLR106 Series in stock now.

It does not move up and down at all. How much will the mount move vertically or does stay locked in place tightly? I like this option much better for a forward mount than an ultimak. Far less heat likely so its safer for the optic and doesn't restrict access to the gas block. -

I don't know if it holds zero, but it seems to be VERY solid. There's a gap between the mount and the dust cover, so removing the dustcover without manipulating the mount is not an issue. -

No It's an MI rail with MI Mini Dot. There'a a channel in the rail that allows you to shoot with Irons. Yo cobravenom, Im really wondering how the dot sight is attatched to the mount, and how it can be taken off in a pinch. Please post it up, Im sure im not the only one who wants to know. You can't remove it quickly. It replaces the rear sight leaf but incorporates iron sights. It's really pretty cool. <Non-Buisness member Link Removed> -

I think Dinzag carries them. Dinzag's is just a paperweight. It doesn't have the correct gas ports and chambers as a really AK-74 Brake To my knowledge, only KVAR and Krebs have a real one (922 compliant, that is).

The camera doesn't do the gun justice. -
Hey guys, Just got the revised base and have to say this thing is rock solid. There's now a dowel pin that's held captive by a set screw and it isn't going anywhere.
