Bushnell has introduced a pair of sighting solutions designed specifically with the legendary AK-47 platform in mind: the AK Optics 1-4X 24mm Riflescope and AK Optics 1x25mm Red Dot.

The AK Optics 1-4X 24mm Riflescope highlights targets with an illuminated 7.62x39 BDC reticle. It features 11 brightness levels, so operators will be able to quickly adapt to any setting. The 30mm-diameter, 1-piece aircraft aluminum tube is designed to withstand a beating worthy of the AK-47 itself.

The AK Optics 1x25mm Red Dot, meanwhile, is meant to help deliver fast, surefire shot placement in any scenario. The 3 MOA dot reticle covers three inches of your target at 100 yards, while the Amber-Bright high-contrast lens coating enhances detail and suppresses lens flare.

Both optics are waterproof and fogproof.
