how does this work with an AK-47?

It does not. It is designed for AR-15/M-16 rifles and it does not work very well with them.

It is designed to work with the AR rifles, so it probably won't work with the AK platform. You'd be better off looking for a brass catcher designed for the AK.

I'm not certain as AK's vary in manufactures if it doesn't direct fit you may have to modify it a little cosmetically to fit. Hope this helps

I have had this mounted on my AK47, many shots down range. Less than 1" at 50yrd and less than 2" at 100 yrd. Friend mounted one on his AK with the same results, he just bought one for his AR15, and I'm getting one for mine. Several negative reviews out there, but I can't speak to other peoples installation/mounting or use. Mine and friends work great, holding up to AK47 recoil, multiple disconnects and banging around in /out of trucks. Still holding zero after 8 months. Buy it, price is good and it works.

I have a friend that has his mounted on an AK; I suppose the recoil could be an issue, but his apparent works quite well.

It's metal. Some kind of pot metal but very sturdy. It would work well with an Ak47, but for airsoft. I would not recommend this for a real Ak.

I don't believe it will work with an AK pistol as the rail is mounted at the front sight AND through a screw going into the stock tang on a rifle receiver.

This model of the AK-47 has inconsistent manufacture specs. You may find that the railing for the AK Railed Sight mount is not on a particular model, just as you may find that barrel is not rifled for a sound suppressor/flash guard or instead the sound suppressor/flash guard is welded on the barrel. There are other differences. You might want to look on http://www.mouseguns.com/mak90web/mak90.htm to get more information. The answer is it depends on the manufacturer.

It will not hold ak mag. There are ones out there that have long pouches in the middle and grenade pouchs that are around the same size as the sks pouches

If your ak has a rail and you tighten it down properly it will preform just fine..

I have mounted it on my AK 47 and it seems to be holding up realy well. i shoot about 200 rounds and it held the ajusment. NICE I got it for a rifle I am putting together to make a sniper rifle, a mosin nagant with a archangle stock. I figured I would try it on my AK and if it could handle it it might be able to withstand the Nagant, we'll see

It's similar for both applications. On a revolver open the wheel and lock through one of the openings. On pistols lock the slide back, and position the cable lock down through the empty magazine well. On MSR's (AR-15 and AK variants) lock the slide back and run the lock through the brass ejection slot, and down the magazine well. Bolt actions are going to depend on the model, and may require some ingenuity. Just remember that these are intended to lock the operation of the firearm, not the trigger.

I would like to help, but my AK-47 Airsoft Gun does not fire at all. It did not work soon after purchase.

You would just need a standard scope mount. It clamps on just like standard scope rings. I had to use a riser to make clearance to easily operate the charging handle on an AR, but that is not a problem on the AK.

Yes, if it has been converted to the pistol grip, trigger forward AK configuration. I have one on mine.

It depends on what rifle you have. On an AR it will 100% cowitness, on an AK it will 1/3 cowitness.

It comes complete with screws and it will work with the quick release mount. Unless your AK is already drilled, you will have to drill it yourself, that is not a big deal. No instructions comes with this and I mean none. Go on Youtube and you can watch a guy putting one on his AK. I got one for my son for Christmas and we installed it in about 30 minutes. Seems to be a really good, strong setup.

Without the adapter piece, it has 24mm threads on the inside. Should fit just fine. AK47 users will need a 14x1mm LH -&gt; 24mm adapter (from CNC Warrior or AK Builder etc).
