My rifle doesn't have a slide rail to mount a side scope mount. Any ideas on what product I will need to mount an optic on this gun? I want the optic over the receiver. Will the AK Mount work?
Thanks
Don

TWS Dog Leg Rail

I did some digging around and it seems like the Master Mount doesn't work on the VSKA, but contact them to know for sure.

Thank you for your response! Does the TWS Product hold zero?

You'll find mixed reports on that. It seems it doesn't have a problem holding zero with lighter weight optics (e.g. red dots), but not so great with heavy ones (e.g. scopes).

Ak Master Mount makes a side rail that is simple to add on and remove. I don't have one, but have one on order.

These are great, but I heard vska owners had issues. Century's fault not master mounts

Just curious, how is Century’s fault that an after market AK part doesn’t fit one of their rifles?

TWS rail will hold zero with MOS (Minute of Shooter), the REAL issue is the VSKA is HOT garbage...best bet would be to unload it and start over, WASR would be an excellent choice...

I assume because Master Mount designed their product to work with fairly standard military dimensions and Century does not.

^ THIS.  Generally speaking, Century imports; yes, Century builds; nope.
