As much stuff as we cover during SHOT Show, we somehow always manage to miss something cool that was launched at the show. One thing I just found out about is the new Samson Manufacturing AK-47 RSR2 or Rear Sight Rail. This all-steel mounting solution for the Aimpoint T-1 and T2 red dot sights is a simple direct mount option that allows the user to replace their AK-47 rear sight with an RDS compatible direct mount which also features a co-witness notch so that the front sight post can still be used in case the red dot fails or is off.

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.
