mogunner 240 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 Looks like you'll have to remove it every time you want to take the cover off, other than that it will get the benefit of the lower mount to reduce parallax in the scope since it'll be a little closer to inline with the bore. I just bought a cheap Chinese one, works fine and I don't have to take it off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TacticalGenius 4 Posted June 15, 2012 Report Share Posted June 15, 2012 I had one for my Saiga. It is extremely well made and you don't have to remove it to take the dust cover off, but it is hard since it sits so low. I returned mine since it was a wee bit off center when mounted (too far over to the right), and I got a Molot mount instead. It was an awesome mount too, but I decided to ditch it for the more traditional irons on the AK. MI has outstanding customer service, so if you want to return or exchange, it isn't a problem. They are great quality too. TG Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tatonic 159 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Share Posted June 16, 2012 Why would one buy this extra weight when the TWS rail cover is about the same price and offers intergrated duty? Sorry, I forgot about the 'purist' thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry, I forgot about the 'purist' thing. Because this comes off quicker and easier than anything on the TWS, unless they also buy a QD mount. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
