Welcome to
RussianOptics.net, a site dedicated to covering
Russian and former Soviet optics for small arms (and
many others).
RussianOptics.net is the result of many years of
collecting 'combloc' optics and evaluating their use
on AK rifles. For me the optic hobby started in 2005
with a PK-AS, a Kobra and an SLR105 in 5.45x39... I've
been intrigued ever since. Each year I've tried to
acquire new optics to train with and see what they
were all about, and eventually I began to review
them on a few popular AK sites. During 2011 some kind
of 'critical mass' with optics was reached and I
decided to put my experiences down on paper so to
speak - and the result is this site.
My primary interest is with modern AK74 and AK100
series optics but we will also cover many of the older
Russian and Soviet designs commonly found in the USA,
as well as an overview of both traditional and modern
mounting solutions. While it will not be possible to
cover every optic ever made or every possible way to
mount them, we will continually be adding content and
information and we hope this site will continually
evolve for many years to come. We'd like to make this
a valuable reference site and hope to answer some of
the many questions that arise when it comes to AK's
and what kind of optic solutions work for them.
I'd to like express special thanks to Tantal of Avtomats In Action, Berg of Dragunov.net, Voron, Miglan-20, LiquidMetal, Forty Creek, OK131583, Eastwave and Kalinka Optics among others for letting me use pictures and links to their respective sites. The field of Russian optics is much larger than any one person can really tackle and I deeply appreciate the assistance as this site becomes as detailed as it can be.

From Voron of theakforum.net:
"Its been a little while since I came across any new Russian optics that really caught my attention and stood among local competition. Few weeks ago I received a new Belomo optic called "PK-06" for testing and evaluation..."
