SKS Detachible Mag recommendations

[Drewski Canuck]

I'm putting a scope rail on an SKS and it will no longer top feed after that.

I need a detachable 5 shot mag, and I don't want a 35 shot pinned plastic mag.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I would like to see what an SKS will do with a Scope. I will have a permanent mount, so it will have to be loaded with a detachable Mag.

I hope you got the long rail that mounts into the rear iron sight location.

Yes,

This is the long one that changes the rear hood and mounts to the rear site location.

It seems the most logical given the problems with mounts moving on the rear hood models, but once its on it will have to stay on.

Thus the problem with the mags.

Let us know how it turns out with a scope the one I have is a 100m rifle and not much more than that 3 "+ groups is something I have just gotten used to

I like the plastic "duck billed" mags but it is hard to find a 5 round one.

My scope doesn't extend the range but helps me see that target better. It is a very cheap Chinese one.
