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?

I plan to, but haven't found a rail that I like yet. Do you have one in mind?

Nothing really specific in mind yet, just doing research to figure out the best option(s).

I'd like to end up with something authentic combloc, probably something from https://eastwave.ca/products/reddot.html

As far as I can tell this is a standard molot mount: https://eastwave.ca/products/scopes/sksrail.html

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.

I'm a machinist. If you can help me source one of those, I'll make a small batch of reproduction parts.

this is my only lead

"I had a link here for a dovetail mount but reddit sucks ass so here we are."

I might try to procure one, and if I do, I'll let you know.

I don't understand why that link was problematic but the others in this thread are fine? Any explanation from the mods?

rule 6, and I understand where the mods are coming from (cause the admins will just nuke the subreddit), but seriously fuck this website and its garbage ass censorship.
