I have the Ultimak rail, for similar reasons, and have had good luck with it. Only thing of note is they get kind of hot and I wouldn't recommend a red dot, with the battery on the bottom.

They are great I have a take off Midwest industries if you are looking to buy. As the other user stated they can heat up but function is outstaning using the gas tube.

You already ordered it, but I've got 2 Ultimak's too. Very happy with using them.

Honestly wish they made the Zhukov left folder as an option. The Zhukov didn't really play nice with the charging handle on my AK. Had to shave off a tiny bit of material. Its a no go with a CH Extension or even a cheek riser. Seems like the Russians beat them to it  Taken from the AK12 thread  Ended up ordering a CNC warrior galil style. But anyways Ultimak is solid |

Glad to hear the input.
Cant wait.. Right now it's just too slow and too much work with my eyes and stock AK irons. I know soon I'll be able to rock it to my liking. |

Haven't had to re zero once. |

OP here, stopping by for a little update.
Love the RDS! I installed my UltiMAK rail along with a Primary Arms SLX. The SLX is less than half the price of any RDS I have but I wanted to give it a shot out of curiosity. Seems many are happy. The rail looked to be of very good quality and installed super, super easy. I went with a 25 yard zero. Two inches high and 1" left after mounting. I adjusted and the RDS moved point of impact just as it should have. I finished up by doing some drills at 50yds on an IPSC steel. I love the the RDS. It really became another rife. I'm only in 100 rounds, but right now I'm very pleased. It went from an ok shooting experience to really fun. If your thinking about moving on from irons do it now. I was 4 years too late. |

Anyone run a perst or any other laser on an ultimak? Wondering how they hold up to the heat.

I own the TROY railed gas tube and find it completely satisfactory.
Dont know why these are not favored more than the Ultimak as the TROY allows easy removal as it is not a semi permanent mount like the Ultimak. |
