      Just get an Emag site rail. That is assuming you have an emag . Just mount the Izon to that and you should be set. good luck

        Actually I just remebered(sorry), you will have some fun getting a site to fit along with a hopper. I dont know what hopper you use, but it may make things difficult or impossible for you if there is hardly any clearance between the top of the body and the bopttom of the hopper.

          ive got a standard mag with a ULE and a RICO ak hopper. I want the IZON simply because it looks cool so I dont want any sighting alternative.

            Ok thats cool. After looking at some pics, I think that using ricochet loader will make it possible. I have one too(a ricochet and an Izon) and as you know the ricochets ramp upward on the underside in the back. I think this will allow enough clearance to mount an Izon on a low site rail. There are a number of rails that simply slide onto the body of the gun, and you will have to just pick one that doesnt look like it is excesivly tall(and also that it matches the gun! ). I really hope it works for you. As I said I dont know for sure, it just looks like it should work with a low profile site rail and the fact that you are using a ricochet. Good luck

              so if I get a site rail then like I just tap it for the Izon? How do I fit the benchmark to the body though? And what kinda sight rail should I get thats short enough? What do you have?

                Right now I am not using my sight rail and Izon on my Emag, because it saves weight. You dont have to modify the rail or your gun in any way for it to work. The type of site rail you will need for a standard mag is one that slides onto the body and holds onto it. From the rear or front the base of the rail is like a big C. It snaps down around the body of the gun and holds on with friction. ANS has one for example called the shark grill rail I think. All that matter is that you get one similar to it. The Izon will hold onto the site rail using four small screws.

                      There are (or should be) many different site rails out there that are the same as the shark grill. I dont use any of them because I have an Emag and it uses a special site rail that holds onto the gun with screws. I dont have any pictures but I will look around for links for you to look at.
