Quoted: I've heard some have scope rails that weren't installed very well, and that the scopes can't even be zeroed on those that weren't aligned right. Is this true?

i have not heard of this with the actual romanian built rifles,....it may be a thing with the kit built guns though.
and yes if the side rail is improperly mounted, you will catch hell getting a zero.
i had put a POSP side rail mount on one of my mosins so i could scope it for deer season,...needless to say i should have taken my time and done it right the first time,..but it is fixed now, as a matter of fact i still need to tie off a loose end on that rifle.(paint)
on my PSL i can take my 8xPOSP scope off and put it back on as much as i want,..as long as i make sure to slide it all the way forward each time i keep my zero.
and the othere thing with this is that you have to make sure you have a SVD/PSL style scope to put on a SVD/PSL scope rail. the SVD/PSL scopes should not be able to go onto a AK style rail.
however,..............a AK style scope can go about 1/2 to 3/4 of the way onto a SVD/PSL rail,..and it will even lock in place,....but it will not hold a zero for s#!t,. and it may fall off of the rail completely
(do not ask how i know this
)
also with the scope you have to adjust the tightness of the locking lever to work with your rifle,..it is very,..very simple to do and must be done for each scope no matter if it is a AK style or SVD/PSL style.
hope all that helps
