1stMarDiv 4 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I attached some HK sights to the dust cover that came with my shotgun. Which has inadvertently limited my ability to mount a scope rail for my EOtech. Your help is always appreciated. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Klassy Kalashnikov 1,393 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I don't believe anyone sells extra dust covers. On the bright side, all you need is a regular AK dust cover and you can widen the opening to the dimensions of the S-12 top cover. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any idea on a retailer? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Just to be safe go with a stamped top cover IMO: http://www.k-var.com/shop/product.php?productid=16887&cat=320&page=1 It's got the ribs on it too which looks pretty cool anyway. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Milled gun top covers are .034" thick and smooth like Saiga 12 covers. Stamped receiver AKM covers are .024" thick and have ribbed reinforcements. Yugoslav covers are too short. Sure you could use a AKM top cover but you'd be cutting into the reinforcements and it would not look like a Saiga cover. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
