RS Regulate AKML AK-300 Modular Upper Optic Mount Aimpoint Micro Footprint - AKML
Product Description
Mounting an electronic red dot sight to an AK-pattern rifle has traditionally been a masterclass in compromise. Due to inconsistencies across various factory side rails, conventional one-piece mounts frequently force shooters to endure an excessively high cheek weld or leave the optic misaligned with the bore's true centerline. The RS Regulate AKML Aimpoint Micro Mount resolves this historical design flaw, providing an ultra-low-profile, precision-adjustable upper optic mount that gives AK operators a true co-witness and center-aligned sight picture.
Precision CNC-machined from a solid billet of 6061-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum, the AKML is engineered to withstand the violent, sharp reciprocating recoil unique to the AK platform. It features a rugged Type III hardcoat anodized matte black finish that defends against harsh field environments, carbon fouling, and abrasive solvents. As part of the world-renowned RS Regulate AK-300 modular system, this upper mount interfaces seamlessly with any AK-300 series lower base (such as the AK-301M or AK-303M), allowing you to construct a tailored mounting profile specific to your rifle’s receiver geometry.
In practice, the AKML acts as a direct-mount interface for the industry-standard Aimpoint Micro footprint, completely eliminating the need for heavy, tall Picatinny adapter plates that introduce unnecessary failure points. Its unique modular design allows for minute side-to-side adjustments during installation, ensuring your red dot's reticle sits perfectly over the center of the barrel even on rifles with slightly out-of-spec side rails. By bringing the red dot down to the lowest possible mechanical plane, it facilitates a fast, natural point of aim and a repeatable stock weld for rapid target transitions.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Technical Maintenance Guidance: The AKML is an upper optic mount only and must be paired with an RS Regulate AK-300 series lower mount base to attach to your rifle's side scope rail. When assembling the upper mount to the lower base, mock up the system on your rifle first to establish true over-bore alignment before tightening the connecting screws. Use a precise torque wrench to tighten the upper-to-lower interface screws to 25 in-lbs, and apply a small drop of medium-strength blue threadlocker. For the four optic-specific mounting screws, torque them strictly to 12 in-lbs; over-torquing can strip the aluminum threads or pinch the internal electronics of your red dot sight.
Key Features
- Aimpoint Micro Footprint: Designed to directly accept Aimpoint T-1/T-2, H-1/H-2, and premium compatible clones from Holosun and Primary Arms without adapter plates.
- Over-Bore Centering Capability: Modular layout allows front-to-back and side-to-side drift adjustments to achieve perfect alignment over the rifle's barrel centerline.
- Ultra-Low Profile Geometry: Positions the electronic sight close to the top cover, allowing a reliable iron-sight co-witness on standard pattern AK rifles.
- 6061-T6 Billet Construction: Machined from a single block of high-tensile aluminum to deliver extreme structural integrity without adding front-heavy bulk.
- Type III Hardcoat Anodizing: Finished with a military-spec hardcoat shell providing superior surface hardness and excellent resistance to scratching and corrosion.
