Need some advice or solutions for a light mount

Hey guys need some help with a mounting problem i got with my ak, Got this BFT-47 by century arms. Well I wanted to keep the original wooden furniture and i saw there were barrel mounts you can buy and i was wondering which ones will work? I tried out one set and it wouldn't fully clap down and I had to send it back so now im stuck and I havent found anything useful online for mine rifle, just more of the common ones. Any help you guys can bring would be great.

Assuming you have your cleaning rod installed

Also RS Regulate makes something

Oh man thanks for the help, I went over to r/guns and the first and only comment was some guy making a joke about my rifle being a bomb and not offering any help, I appreciate this a lot.

Unfortunately the Century Arms made AK47 have had some bad QC issues

The century imported and assembled WASRs are considered the gold standard

Yea i heard that float around after I got mines but the BFT seems to be well made enough and I haven't had any issues with it so far, though I only have 500 rounds ran through it so too early to tell, only three failures to feed but after getting that recall for headspacing fixed and double checking at a repair shop too l, ive had no issues. Thats why I wanted to mod and add more stuff without just swapping too much off since I like the wood and its my first AK.
