Alexander of the Red Army Airsoft Club sent us their latest howto video which AK fans would want to watch as it allows them to mount a RIS rail mount on their AKs by replacing the rear sight. In this case the sample AEG shown in the video below is the LCT Airsoft AMD-65. This way, one can mount optics rather than be limited with the iron sight.
We almost had to write MadBull Airsoft if they're ever going to make these for the airsoft market as there are other companies making an effort to make some in the Far East. Finally, they announce that they have released the airsoft versions for AK lovers who want a simple way of installing optics on their AKs without going through all the drilling to put a side mount.
Strike Industries AK Rear Sight Rail Mount
Another release from Strike Industries as they produce something that can be welcomed by Glock pistol users as it lessens worries of mounting optics for their pistols... "The Strike Industries has added to its ever growing line of Glock products with its SI Rear Sight Rail Adapter for the Glock.
A simple solution that answers an immediate need. Strike Industries' AK Rear Sight Rail for mounting Low Profile Red Dot Optics readily converts your AK rear sight into a 1913 Picatinny Rail for mounting optics you want.
