Both the Aimpoint and the Primary Arms optics allow you to co-witness on a Saiga using the RS Regulate mount. This means that the two sighting systems are zeroed for the same distance and windage. The illustration above shows the red dot in a co-witnessed position resting directly above the post. The red dot floating on top of the front post depicts a “co-witnessed” sight picture where the red dot rests directly above the post. Where the red dot locates in the optic (middle or bottom 1/3) is a matter of preference. When you co-witness you’re able to align your iron sights in tandem with your red dot optic. Co-witnessingĬo-witness refers to the relationship between the optical sight and the AK’s fixed or iron sights. The ability to co-witness (see below) is not a must-have, but is certainly desirable. The only thing it won’t do is allow you to co-witness. It will work with the VEPR, Saiga and Arsenal. It’s a rock-steady unit that is slung low - close to the dust cover. One I’ve tested is the SM-13 from Arsenal. There are some decent scope mounts out there. The lesson is that before you purchase an optic, be certain that the item you acquire will operate correctly with the mount and model of your AK. Thus, obtaining a one-mount-fits-all solution is impossible. This is a tall order.Īs I outlined earlier, there are inevitable discrepancies in the specifications among manufacturers when it comes to positioning of the rail, thickness of the receiver, and so on. The engineering challenge for these devices has been to build something that will work with all - or at least a great majority - of the AK variants. There are a number of mounts on the market ranging from not-so-great stuff imported from China to well-made products from Russia or the U.S. These clamp onto a bracket located on the left-hand side of the receiver - assuming your AK has a bracket most, but not all, do. Shown here the M1-B is installed on an Egyptian rifle with a Choate Dragunov style stock.If you’re going to invest in an optic and don’t have a rail or handguard system that will allow you to place it on your rifle, you’re going to need a separate item called an optics mount. Since the mount is clamped to the barrel and not jammed in between the gas block and the sight block like the original gas tube, several UltiMAK users have reported an improvement in their AKs' inherent accuracy. The UltiMAK AK optic mount rarely if ever needs to be removed to clean the rifle, so you need not worry about loss of zero. Other European and Chinese smallbores will NOT need the shims. Romanian Small Bore AKs Only: Romanian 5.45 and 5.56 mm caliber AKs require our shim set SH-1 to match the M1-B to the smaller barrel. Multiple target or moving target engagements, with both eyes open, become second nature.
#AK 47 BAYONET PICATINNY RAIL MOUNT FULL#
The forward positioning of the optic gives you faster, easier and more natural targeting while maintaining your full field of view. This heavy duty mount replaces the original steel gas tube and upper handguard, so it adds less than one ounce to the weight of the rifle, making it by far the lightest optic mount installation in the world. The system allows for co witnessing (the ability to use your iron sights right through a 1x sight as a back-up sighting system) when used with a tubular reflex sight. With a tubular sight mounted low, you will be able to use your optic without a comb riser and still use your regular hold. Its Picatinny style rail is positioned well below the iron sight axis, making this the lowest optic mount available for the AK. With the increasing popularity of the AK based rifles in three gun competitions, the need for a handy, light, completely reliable high speed sighting system has resulted in the UltiMAK M1-B optic mount.
