ZBROIA AK Receiver Cover with Weaver/Picatinny Rail

The ZBROIA AK Receiver Cover with Weaver/Picatinny Rail is a professional solution for reliable and precise optics mounting on AK-family rifles and carbines. It is designed to eliminate play between the cover and the weapon's receiver, ensuring a stable point of aim even after multiple shots and intensive use. The ability to use the standard rear sight is preserved, so installing the cover does not restrict standard aiming devices.

Advantages and Purpose

The cover is suitable for installation on all AK rifles and carbines (AK-47, AK-74, AK-74M, AKM, AKMS, Vulcan, Saiga, Saiga MK). It is not suitable for RPK and AKS-74U. It allows optics to be positioned at an optimal distance from the shooter's eye, taking into account their anatomy and preferences, making it ideal for hunting, tactical use, and sport shooting.

Materials and Construction

The cover is made from a solid billet of anodized aerospace aluminum alloy EN-AW7075 on high-precision CNC machines, ensuring ideal geometry and fit of the part. All critical fastening elements subjected to increased loads are made of steel: the window for the set screw, the set screw itself, and the guide tab. Each cover undergoes quality control with installation and testing on a weapon, which increases reliability in real operating conditions.

Functional Features

• The cover has 18 marked slots, allowing optics to always be installed in the same mounting position across a wide range of distances relative to the shooter's eye.
• The rail allows for the installation of any type of high-precision optics for the Picatinny/Weaver platform: optical sights, red-dot sight + magnifier, thermal imagers, night-vision devices, etc.
• The original locking mechanism includes a catch with a button-lock and a roller-tensioning system, as well as a spring-loaded tab at the front that engages under the standard rear sight and does not interfere with its operation.
• Replacing the standard cover with the ZBROIA product is simple and possible in the field without additional equipment.

How to Properly Secure the Cover

• 1. Install the cover on the rifle.
• 2. Ensure the catch engages the cover window.
• 3. Tighten the wheel until it stops. Attention! The wheel should only be tightened by hand, without the use of additional tools.
• 4. Cycle the weapon 5-10 times without firing.
• 5. Tighten the wheel again until it stops.
• 6. If necessary, repeat the procedure once more.
• 7. Tighten the screw for a 2mm hex key, located on the right side of the cover below the wheel. This will lock the wheel and prevent loosening from vibrations.
