Yugo SKS scope and mount

Anybody know the best non-gunsmith scope and mount for the Yugo SKS. Looking for something quick and easy. Maybe the cheaper than dirt gas tube replacement with the built-in scope mount or one of the receiver covers with the scope rings attached (if they fit the Yugo model)

Any advice will be appreciated.

    The quickest would be the replacement reciever with rings. Some have scopes included.

    From experiance, they do not hold zero's worth a crap. My .02
    Half of the lives they tell about me aren't true.

    Reciever cover mount- but the key to getting one that will hold zero is SLOWLY filing one to a really SNUG fit. Not a place for a Dremel tool, but a hand file, a fine stone, and patience.

    That makes sense, but I wonder if the replacement receiver mounts offered on the market would even fit my Yugo SKS since often they specify "fits Russian and Chinese SKS" and don't mention the Yugo SKS?

    Scoutscopes.com: Has these scope mounts that mount were your rear sight goes. You have to use a long eye relief scope. Never used one, But they look like they should keep a good zero.

    Check with B-Square and see if they still make a mount for SKS'S. The one I put on mine is very solid.
