The Arsenal Ars Scope Mount 5 Rail AKS-74U Side-Attaching Precision Machined is a precision-engineered accessory designed to elevate the versatility and performance of your AK variant rifle. Born from military requirements, this side-attaching scope mount from Arsenal, Inc. pairs robust, aircraft-grade aluminum with a lightweight 4.88-ounce profile, delivering a one-piece CNC machined platform that extends a 5-inch Picatinny rail from the top cover to the rear peep sight. Its low-profile contour stays true to the rifle's lines, enabling continued use of hinged top covers with integrated sights even when the mount is installed, while the reliable steel adjustable locking mechanism ensures quick attachment and secure retention without sacrificing zero. Unlike mounts that couple to top covers or gas tubes, the SM-13K anchors to the side scope rail for a solid, dependable optic foundation that supports multiple devices or prioritizes maximum eye relief with a single optic. Whether youre a seasoned hunter or tactical shooter, this mount is engineered to meet demanding field use, offering enhanced stability, quick targeting, and consistent accuracy for your AKS-74U setup.
