If you purchase with the kobra optic are the mounting threads covered then?

Based on the description, it uses a system like the AK Master Mount instead of a normal riveted side rail.

The mount was custom engineered and manufactured specifically for the Type 81 rifle and was extensively tested to ensure reliability, durability and zero-holding properties. The mount consists of replacement hammer and trigger receiver pins with threaded ends on one side and hex indentations on the other. The replacement pins thread into the adapter plate, while the safety is replaced with a right-hand safety. The side mount is quick-detach and fits over the adapter plate.

The pins are custom manufactured in the USA of Grade 8.8 strength steel while the adapter plates are precision machined in Canada of 6061 T6 alloy with Mil 8625 Type 3 Hardcoat.

Comes with threaded trigger pin, threaded hammer pin, adapter plate, right hand safety and Kobra EKP-1S-03 Sight.

Sounds like the adaptor plate would cover the threaded pins even without the Kobra mounted.

And even if it didn't, you could just get regular trigger and hammer pins.
