Aim Sports M44/Mosin Nagant 91/30 Scope Mount (Short)

 (42 customer reviews)

This is a great little setup for putting an accessory on a Mosin-Nagant rifle with little or no gunsmithing. However, the purchaser should remember that if you're planning on putting a scope on the rifle with this kit, it will have to be a long eye relief scope, which can cost up to over 4 times what you paid for the rifle! It would be much easier to purchase a bent bolt kit and put a scope on that way. If you're thinking a Red Dot sight or another sight system, this is the perfect choice for you.

This product fits perfect and works great. It takes about 5 mins. and a brain to install. Once you get it on through the hole the original sight was mounted to (also remove shiny metal spring strip under sight) you have to make sure mount is level then tighten the 3 allen bolts along the top then the 3 little flathead screws on the side of the mount under each allen screw (which lock down the allen screws.) Make sure everything is locked down and your good. I just bought this myself and it works great if you have loosening which happens with every scope then simply use some loctite. All the bad reviews for this product are from people who obviously have no common scense. Just because they couldnt figure out a simple setup dont let it detract you from buying this.

If installed properly this mount is rock solid and will not budge at all. The following is the best way to mount it. Keep the leaf spring in and clamp the mount down in and then hammer the original pin through the hole after drilling out the threads in the mount (not the gun). If you do not keep the leaf spring in, it will wobble and be horribly loose. That bit is rather crucial in the stability of the mount. I grabbed a drill bit the same size as the pin and coated it oil and then drilled out the mount thread. Simple as that. If you have any questions about it in more detail feel free to comment and I will answer asap.
