I have a new new Saiga already converted. It has a scope mount on it that rides about 1" above rear iron sight(very high). It also came with a dragonov stock with cheek peice, that weilds up nicely for the scope use but too high for irons.  

Question: I really like the Kvar looking solid plastic stocks look on these rifles but it will probably not be high enough weild for using the scope. Is there a happy medium? or do I need to get a lower scope mount to use the kvar stock (i don't like dragonovs). Can I drill the top of a Kvar stock to use the dragonov cheek peice?  My problem is I don't know what products are out there in the way of stocks and mounts as I am new to AK/saiga's. Scrolling through the pictures here didn't help either.

Lastly,what vendors carry the OD green plastic funiture besides Kvar?

That is exactly what I have but it must be a high mount because the scope that came on it has at least a 40mm objective and is at least an inch over the top of rear sight.

My BP-02 barely clears the dust cover.

Ok, so apparantly I have the high mount version of the BP-02.  So if I can get rid of that thing and get a low mount , where do I look to get  Saiga furniture in OD green with standard AK type warsaw length stock?

For the stock, K-VAR is going to give you the best.

If you want to go by price.  Blackthorne Products

I don't know if Tapco makes an OD green stockset, they do have OD green pistol grips.  They make a black buttstock which I put on one Saiga conversion and it is decent.  You may look around and see if they offer it in OD.  Their handguards just don't eo it for me when I helped someone do some work on an AK they had that type.

This is a K-VAR set I have.  The top handguard looks twisted because the gas tube is tweaked.

Thanks Mak, that is exactly the stock set I like.

Try using your left eye instead. Or go left handed and right eye.
