Butt stock Cheek Rest/Riser w/ammo carrier
« on: October 21, 2020, 07:38:10 PM »
I didn't know where else to stick this question so here it is. Since it is specific to the SKS and considering it as an accessory for an OEM SKS stock.

Anyway, Looking for a lefthand or Ambi tactical cheek rest/riser that has an ammo carrier/pouch of some sort on it that works on an SKS. I've been looking, but my google fu is failing me on this one. Looking for something like these;
Does anybody use anything like this? Is VooDoo Tactical a good brand(I know they are Chinese)? IS there a US brand out there?

My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

Hey Greatguns -  I bought the one on the 2nd link a couple years ago.  I wanted it for a riser as I had  a receiver cover scope mount (Barska mount & 3-9scope) and needed the height.  It worked great and back then they were only  about $9 CDN - I bought 3 for all my rifles that needed the riser.  Didn't use the ammo pouch, it attaches with velcro and fit SK S and .223 ammo well, but I didn't want it on the rifle. 
   The one at the first link looks good, has an integrated pouch with ammo loops, and is Leather .  Since its only a few bucks more I would go for the leather one. It looks like it's got better attachments than the other one.  I didn't like the straps on it, not very 'tidy'.  They're quite long and don't attach in convenient places.  However, YMMV.  I'm still using them, but wouldn't buy another.
   As for the Barska mount/scope system, I found with some judicious filing and then locking one of the 'ears' in a vise to bend the cover I was able to get it mounted very securely and had NO 'wobble'.  It held Zero as best as you can tell with an SKS  chuckles1  The scope was OK but when I bought them it was only $160 CDN.  I think they're higher than that now, if you can find them.  I have a '551 in Tapco now, and am planning to put a red dot on the barrel mount as proposed by 'Insane Accuracy' in a YT vid.  That setup will 'Co-Witness' with the irons which I'm becoming pretty good with now - 3-4 MOA at 100 & 180 yds.  Gotta see what the 'dot will do.  I've painted the irons with White enamel and the rear also has Hi-Lite - quick targeting.  The last pic is the Riser as mounted on my B-22 Savage.
