I bought an element AK74 Metal body and a CYMA Side Mount....anyone care to explain how the bejeesus I attatch the mount to the metal body?

None of the pre-exisiting holes match up..

Re: AK74 Side mount

I can see what you mean by the location of the holes.

All I can suggest is that you have a look at as many pictures of these mounts on guns and work out if a new hole or two extra is needed.

The picture below is the mount that was fitted as standard on my GBBR, you may find it helps with locating the position.

Re: AK74 Side mount

the holes in the side of the body are for the fake rivets to fit in to , you will have to make new holes for the side mount , you can see the fake rivets under the mount in the above pic and on this ca74

Cheers guys...I'll get my drill powered up ASAP!

What type of screw did you guys use so that it doesn't impede the gearbox slotting back into place upon re-assembly?
