The Arsenal Low Profile Scope Mount Gen2 Plum is a second-generation AK-pattern rifle optic mount engineered for shooters who demand repeatable zero and rock-solid stability. If you run an AK, VEPR, or RPK and want to mount a modern optic without sacrificing iron sight access or adding unnecessary weight, this is the mount built for the job. Machined from aircraft-grade aluminum and hard anodized, it clamps directly to the rifle's side scope rail—the most stable mounting platform available on Kalashnikov-pattern rifles—rather than relying on top covers or gas tubes that can shift under recoil.
The Gen2 design refines the original with purposeful lightening cuts that save weight without compromising rigidity, while the recessed locking handle clears your charging handle for smooth operation. A tension-adjustable quick-release system locks your optic in place and holds zero even after removal and reinstallation. The 19-slot Picatinny rail runs 7.5 inches, giving you room to position a single rifle scope for optimal eye relief or stack multiple accessories. The rear cutout design opens compatibility to folding-stock VEPRs and RPKs, and the relief cut along the rail preserves your iron sights as a backup.
This mount was born from military requirements and carries Arsenal's CAGE code, reflecting its ties to serious professional and competition use. At 5.43 ounces, it won't throw your balance off, and the precision engineering means easier mounting and tighter locking than earlier designs. Whether you're hunting, running a precision rifle course, or keeping your battle rifle ready, the Arsenal SM-23 Gen2 delivers the durability and dependability AK shooters expect.
