5 Gen 2 AK side mount optic rail
Posted by David Cook on Mar 11th 2025
Great packaging, came with some extra midwest industries exclusive gear and stickers (which I loved), but most importantly the mount itself. I was more than pleased with the build quality and overall design of this mount. It made adding my reflex and magnifier sights easy, and even more easily detachable if I need to service my AK by removing the entire mount with a flip of a switch. I'd also like to add that I had no issues with holding zero while at the range, which was one concern of mine before purchasing. Great job job Midwest!

Great service from Kelly. The part she recommended was exactly what I needed. I suggest giving her a sizable pay increase!

4 Loctite recommended
Posted by Chris on Dec 15th 2024
Hit the range with two of these on two different heavy-recoiling rifles. Both came loose (between upper and lower portions) after several rounds and had to be retightened. Now when I purchase these, I throw some blue loctite on the screws before using. Since doing that, haven't had an issue. Still prefer the gen 1.

Works perfectly and is a snug fit. The mountain does not rattle and is sturdy. The micro adjustments make alignment of the pick rail easy. Just make sure you blue Lock tight the bolts before you torque the bolts down and let cure for 24 hours.
