Samson Manufacturing Introduces the New AK-47 RSR2 Aimpoint Mount
Luke Cuenco 03.30.23
The AK-47 platform is second only to the much venerated AR-15 rifle in the United States – at least in terms of sheer popularity. The AK-47 rife is a relatively lightweight intermediate cartridge rifle that is pretty good at doing just about everything from home defense to pest control and even hunting. The main hurdle a lot of people have to contend with the AK-47 rifle is a suitable optics mounting solution. There are already quite a few out there on the market but this new one from Samson – the AK-47 RSR2 (Rear Sight Rail) not only replaces your standard rear sight ramp with a simple notch iron sight, but it also gives you the ability to directly mount an Aimpoint T1 or T2 red dot optic to it.

Samson Manufacturing Introduces the New AK-47 RSR2 Aimpoint Mount
Keene, New Hampshire – Showcased at SHOT Show 2023, Samson Manufacturing Corp. has released an updated version of their popular Rear Sight Rail for the AK-47. Compatible with Aimpoint® Micro™ T-1/T-2 optics and others with the same mounting standard. This direct mount micro red dot option is as low as they go.
We’ve teamed up with East Coast AK Specialist, Ken Allen, to design and manufacture some great new AK accessories such as this new rear sight rail. This low-profile direct mount is the latest version of our popular RSR and works with the Aimpoint T1/T2 and other optics with the same mounting standard.
The AK-47 RSR2 is available now to order directly from Samson Manufacturing for $128.75. It would really be cool to see this type of mounting offered for other red dot optics on the market, especially ones that are more affordable than the Aimpoint T1 and T2 optics which are some of the more expensive red dot options on the market.
