The bayonet mounting is very loose. Does it snap into position, or is there a workaround better than taping the threads?

That's what I thought initially. Well, it snaps :) just use more force to snap it in, no worries, you won't break it :) after you use enough force, you should feel/hear as it clicks in and them it will be tight and stable.

You first need to remove the collar on front of the 14 x 42 lens by rotating left the collar at the front of the lens.You then slide the Olympus WCON-P01 Wide Angle... lens over where you removed the collar, twist right until it also snaps in place to keep it from steady.Mine works very well and in small areas has proven itself very valuable.One point, you may have difficulty joining/stitching two or more pictures for a panorama when you use this lens.

I found it slightly snaps in position and have had no problem with it being lose when i am shooting.

It is fairly easy. Just take off the lower hand guard if it looks like the usual A2 style but shorter, leave the shielding in place (makes it easier). Get a "Magpul MOE Polymer Rail Sections" piece that runs about $6 for the short one. Attach as shown through the holes of the handguard (lower only). Now you have a rail section attached straight to the hand guard and works great. I have pictures if you have questions. There is also the mount the goes just in front of the front sight assembly and around the bayonet stud. Either should work, but the first works better if you plan on putting a light and laser on the later method. Good luck and have fun!

Honestly, no! I bought this rifle for the same purpose and ive decided to test the fitting on my AR15 picatinny rail. The knife fixture is too small for flat rail on the weapon. I stuffed the mount of the bayonet in the process. Some say it has fit so that is up to you to gamble.

my tr77 nps scope doesn't move around, have the mount screws tighten before i use it or afterwards. depends on how you maintained your equiptment

I'd say your best bet is a roll bar mount. It's adjustable and can fit around the gun not a problem.

You need to screw the adapter ring which comes with it, and then slip on the hood. In my experience, the hood bayonet engagement came in tight, so I gave it some muscle and it slid in.

Screw it hand tight, the scope should not move on the base. If it moves after tightening the mount screw is to long return for replacement or remove screw from tripod and place a thin washer on screw and reinsert and hand tighten. If that does not work return for replacement.

It is suppose to be but its extremely tight and the supplied screw is cheap so it will strip and it will be stuck and you will curse. Next, bipod is cheap and broke after 1 use. Extremely loose when not broke so the legs with go all over while carrying. I suggest taking bayonet off, put nothing back and put bipod on aftermarket stock or none at all.

That's a good question. I'm actually mounting it to the gun today and hope to zero it in soon, perhaps this Sunday. To me, I would assume that would be the case. My gun has only two slots where the mounts will fit.It should stay 0

If you have to struggle to pull the bolt back and must push the bolt into battery,I think that the mount is too tight. How snug a fit did you make it? If you filed the base of the mount you may have taken too much off. How easily did the bolt move before with the standard cover? I think that this is a good question for Survivor's SKS board ( www.sksboards.com ) on-line blog.

If you are trying to remove the frame from the mount. Just pinch the ends of the clip towards each other and push until it comes out. It seems like it takes a lot of force.

I had the same problem until I realized I had not 'threaded' it correctly under the rail. Check it against the diagram (I know it's not easy to see) but I would bet your problem is there. Good luck.

When you say can't attach, please go into more detail. The bayonet connectors are pretty straight forward as they simply twist on.

I love the mount and it can be very secure. You may have to press down hard on the turned down end of the rail to disengage the rail, and then pull the unit away along the rail.Cheers, Tom

If it wiggles a mm it becomes useless. I have one mounted but just use it to sight in long distant iron sight shots. I've bought two different versions of these; both needed heavy dremmeling. I'd say try a side mount that screws into your stock

This is a bayonet mount and a sling mount. If I tried to mount this on my Colt M4 I wouldn't use the swivel mount; if you tried the handguard would be in the way.

There should be a yoke already attached to the rifle. The mating member of the bayonet slips into it and it tightens down with the screw. It takes about a minute.
