The Arsenal SM-13K Side-Rail Scope Mount (brand part no. SM13K) is a one-piece, CNC-precision machined mount built for AK-pattern rifles with the AKS-74U side rail, including the classic side-attaching interface Arsenal developed to meet a military requirement before releasing the design to the commercial market. It gives a 5-slot section of Picatinny rail for mounting an optic directly to the receiver’s side rail, providing a return-to-zero mount that clamps down without gunsmithing.
