Yup, I own one. This is how you attach a secure rail system to an AK type rifle. Rails on the dust cover would never hold a zero and would be inaccurate after a few mags. The other alternative is a large over hanging monolithic rail system coming off the gas block, but that is usually too far forward for scopes.
sexy but it needs to be more attached to the gun but this is probably a WIP
Not really, Picatinny rails on Russian weapons do look more less like this, most of them don't even touch top of the rifle/MG.
