RS Regulate® AK-302M Rear-Biased Lower Modular Optic Side Mount – AK-302M
The RS Regulate® AK-302M Rear-Biased Lower Modular Side Mount (AK-302M) is a premium, 2026-spec masterclass in tactical optic integration, engineered explicitly for the AKM and standard AK-47/AK-74 pattern receiver rail footprint. Traditionally, mounting modern optics to an AK variant forced shooters into messy setups: high-riding dust cover clamps, heavy full-length rails, or clunky side mounts that threw off the rifle's natural center of gravity. The AK-302M platform (617395300105) elegantly dismantles these engineering hurdles, serving as the foundational lower base of RS Regulate's world-renowned **AK-300 Modular Side Mount System**.
Precision CNC-machined from a lightweight block of ultra-tough 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum billet, the AK-302M utilizes a unique rear-biased geometry. This layout shifts the mounting surface further back toward the shooter's eye, making it the absolute ideal choice for red dots, holographic blocks, and short eye-relief optics, while freeing up forward real estate on the dust cover. The engineering crown jewel of the RS Regulate architecture is its **dynamic over-bore and axial alignment system**. When paired with an RS Regulate upper optic mount, the AK-302M allows the shooter to manually adjust the optic left-to-right and front-to-back before pinning, anchoring your scope perfectly dead-center over the rifle's bore axis. Utilizing a heavy-duty, low-profile titanium locking clamp that locks securely onto standard factory side dovetail plates, it delivers a repeatably solid zero that permits field-stripping without ever removing the optic from its housing.
Includes: (1) RS Regulate AK-302M Rear-Biased Lower Optic Mount (Matte Black), Titanium Rail Clamp Assembly, and Micro-Pin Locking Hardware.
*Please Note: This is the modular LOWER side mount base only. To fully mount an optic to your rifle, it MUST be paired with an RS Regulate AK-300 Series Upper Mount (e.g., AKR Picatinny Rail, AKMD, AKOG, etc.) tailored specifically to your chosen optic footprint.
Key Features
- Rear-Biased Profile Design: Positions the optic platform further rearward, optimizing eye-relief placement for red dots and short scopes while retaining crisp weapon balance.
- True Over-Bore Precision Alignment: Unique modular two-piece build lets you physically align and lock the optic dead-center over the barrel's central axis.
- Ultra-Low Profile Axis: Positions optics exceptionally close to the top dust cover to promote a natural cheek weld and facilitate quick iron-sight co-witnessing.
- Premium Titanium Locking Clamp: Rugged, oversized side-lever mechanism bites securely into factory receiver rails to eliminate shifts under violent recoil.
- Mil-Spec Hardcoat Anodizing: Finished in an industrial Type III matte black surface treatment that rejects aggressive cleaning chemicals and heavy field scrapes.
- Fail-Safe Quick Detach Return: Slides on and off the side plate in seconds, allowing immediate field stripping while holding a repeatable mechanical zero.
