Fix my gun SKS side rail with Hush stock

Wondering if anyone has attempted to/successfully installed a combloc side rail (molot or similar) on their SKS in a Hush Holster stock? How much did the stock need to be filed down, if at all?

ive messaged these guys many times and never gotten a reply. id honestly consider just getting the mastermount, from tac imports.

That's too bad. I guess the war has probably disrupted their logistics etc. Ideally I'd like a combloc optic as well, and while there are some weaver/1913 optics they aren't exactly what I'm looking for.

im not even sure they're in business tbh, but you could always try giving them a call. ive looked into this quite a bit, and nobody has the proper rail other then sites in russia.

IMO you want to try to get your hands on the "EST SKS-K steel low dovetail base" but good luck sourcing them. ivan bear/tactical has them listed on their site. but when I contacted them years ago about is they no longer work with EST so i dunno.

anyways to get something proper you have to find it in russia, pay for it in bitcoin and hope it shows up here. which took me 6 months, OR you can try the mastermount approach but that might be weird on the sks with wooden stock. I understand the look you're going for. I tried to do the same thing. but because russia sucks ass, we cant get imports anymore, so your options are super limited unless you make something yourself.

Thanks for pointing me in this direction. Given this new info the easiest mount is the high dovetail since it gets drilled/tapped directly into the receiver with no need to drill into the stock thus no need to consider the geometry of the hush stock. But this mount is generally only compatible with scopes purpose built for it, which are entirely (?) zoom optics, I have yet to find a red dot or similar.
