Good info in this thread.

You may not be able to find the authentic type of rail used with the Polish variants... I believe in the past Tantal sold them -  I believe he passed away

Following the thread linked above, it seems you would be OK with 1967 since they used rails on the earlier milled AK's too. Unfortunately if you are trying to be as correct as possible, give up on the rail idea now. That specific rail is unobtanium.

Tantal still posts at the AK Forum, he lives.
