Nah it’s fine, you took the picture last week

[u/davidc538]

I have mixed feelings about it

The early stages of a tarkov inspired amazon abomination.

Slap 6 flashlights on it and you wield the power of the sun itself.

[u/yummybunnybear]

So you gonna put something on all that picatinny or hwat

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/yummybunnybear]

I've got a short, stripper-clip compatible LPVO coming for the side-mounted rail to test out (and maybe begin importing)

[u/BrotherLefthand]

Is that the molot/ak style rear sight rail you're prototyping?

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/BrotherLefthand]

Ye

[u/BrotherLefthand → u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS]

how is the grip for a left-handed shooter?

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/BrotherLefthand]

No issues, I'm a lefty too. One could always install it further forward if it bothers them

[u/BrotherLefthand → u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS]

How long until you've got a slick production model ready to ship?

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/BrotherLefthand]

It's 100% ready to go just haven't had time to take pictures or record an install tutorial for if. If you're confident in your ability to properly mark and drill 3 holes into the receiver (with a cobalt bit I provide) you can install it

[u/BrotherLefthand → u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS]

Were you able to get your hands on the optic rails from your supplier to go with it?

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/BrotherLefthand]

Yes, comes with everything you see in this image:

I could kiss you. Have you tried other AK rails? I don't love the dual pic blocks.

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/BrotherLefthand]

I think the midwest industries style ones don't work, as they shoot inwards at a hard 45 degree angle. Like they just don't work with the SKS itself, it hits the bolt/cover.

There's the Zenitco knockoffs, they work but require some minor filling on the rear side (as do these ones, which I've pre-done for the user) to keep it 100% aligned horizontally.

Then the other I know of is no rail, just two scope rings. Never tested it! And one that's sort of a small weaver-style rail, it looks like it would work.

Rule of thumb is if it juts out too far inwards at a sharp angle (Midwest, Master Mount etc.) to try and be flush with an AK receiver it probably won't work. These ones I provide are nice and curved on the interior.

The one on the back is to me the only correct option for the SKS. Looks SO good. AK style is the best and allows for a free bolt

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/StalkerRigo]

Stripper clip compatible and quick detach. In this setup you'd normally run irons and a normal handguard haha, if your scope is fucked up you can quickly toss it off and use the irons.

I just had all of these on as I was testing my new products (side mount and tactical handguard) and left my rear sight base on 'cause I couldn't be arsed to remove it. Looked at it and though wow, this looks kind dumb, let's post it on Reddit.

[u/StalkerRigo → u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS]

honestly? I expected it to look bad, but it doesnt. If I need to choose, the back one is the one for me. If I could have an SKS like yours? abso fucking lutely. its looks good and I dont know how

can wait to see what youre bringing to us next man, love your work!

[u/Fed_Informant]

Wow it's horrible, give me 20.

[u/SerGT3]

What's the one closest to the barrel, on the left. Sorry don't know the part name?

[u/NEUMANN-METALWORKS → u/SerGT3]

The handguard? A new one I made/will be selling.
