what I am saying is you can increase (possibly) the rigitidy of the rail to receiver interface, but the mount to rail is pretty had to improve, other than tightening the cam another notch. Are you using the right kindof mount for your rail? the two major types dont' mix

I have seen other posts of the 3 screw mounts not being reliable. The cam locks
I have seen from belarus have all worked fine.

Mark the mount he is using is onea the crappy imitation ones that don't use the locking cam but instead relies on tightening 3 allen bolts to colse the clamp

As far as the Question....... yea start by getting an actual Russian mount... a BP-02 is the low pro version but I don't know who currently has em in stock here is the tall version for $35

Mark this is what he has $19.99 like they say ya generally get what ya pay for...

Oh - I thought he had a rail that was bolted to the receiver. instead of riveted.
