What kind of hand guard would be good for putting a red dot sight like what is shown except not using back up iron sights on this picture and with an ak series rifle?

I want a lightweight hand guard that I can add on picatinny rails as needed like the troy alpha series. I think this one would work but I'm not sure http://www.midwayusa.com/product/525636/krebs-custom-keymod-rail-akm-stamped-aluminum-black?cm_vc=ProductFinding thoughts?

1 more question, how to I get images to display on the forums?

You could always get a Larue offset T1 mount and use that on the top part of the rail.

I don't get it. What's wrong with a lower 1/3 co-witness?

ETA: Or are you talking about a magnified optic as the main?

tAKticool?  Unless you are sporting a magnified optic it doesn't make much sense.
