Recommendations for a Cyma Ak74u Side Mount

[THE FNG]

Hi all,

 

I recently acquired a Cyma AK74u and I wanted to run an optic.

I bought a cheap AK side mount for optics which fit but after taking it off and putting back on a few times to get to the battery compartment, it actually broke. The top of the bolt/screw thing came loose from the rest of the bolt, meaning it will slide into place but cant be locked or secured.

 

I'm looking for your experiences with side mounts and any recommendations for any particular products that have lasted being taken on and off and then test of time.

 

 

For info, I bought this:

I've used this firm for years.  Always 100% quality service and decent products.  The sidemount on my RPK came from here:  https://www.ant-supplies.uk/rail-base-mounts/ak-side-mounts.html
