I'm pretty new to AKs, I've got a polish underfolder and a tantal waiting to be shipped off for a fixed stock build. I'm also a month away from being 59 and my shooting past 100 yards with open sights isn't what it was when I was 20. I need to put some optics on the tantal. I want to buy a side rail and scope from Tantal but can't honestly figure out which I should order. can someone point me in the right direction? thank you!

Send Tantal an email, he's a great guy he'll give you advise on whats correct and what works for your rifle.

Will a Polish under-folder stock clear a scope rail??

Are you building your Tantal on the dedicated Tantal receiver? (tri-burst selector on the left side)? If so, I don't know of anybody selling a rail that will accommodate that. If your building on a regular AK74 receiver then any '74 type rail will work.

Another alternative would be to go with the DPH rail that mounts over the dust cover. I don't think it's ready yet, but I think they're pretty close. It's very similar to what the Poles use on their current issue weapons.
