Is that a rifle grenade sight folded down over the gas block?

Very nice! How did the rear sight work out?

When I asked about it appearing to be a non-standard part, he said "It's a non-catalogued item for a manufacturer. He decided not to pay us, so we were stuck with these custom parts." - I figured it was worth a squirt, so I accepted.

Likely putting this together around Thanksgiving - my buddy with all the AK tools is having back surgery soon, so he'll be out of action until then.

How much for this nonstandard part, and do they have more of them?

I do have the M-Lok lower handguard with the cheese grater upper handguard. And I installed a Zhukov folding stock.

I’ve been using an RS Regulate 2-piece side mount topped with an ACSS LVPO, but it seems to add a lot of bulk and weight to the rifle. I moved the LVPO to a .300 Blk AR upper I have, and removed the optic mount. My problem is that my eyesight just won’t let me pickup the standard AK rear sight. The notch is just too small for me to see clearly. I’ve purchased a Krebs Custom AK Aperture Site (800M), but haven’t installed it yet. But if I could figure out how to affordable install an AR-type rear sight on the back of the dust cover, I’d probably even prefer that.
