Does it HOLD ZERO?! RS Regulate mount and ACSS Red Dot

Published on June 1, 2016
Duration: 7:35

This video demonstrates a rigorous zero retention test for the RS Regulate 301M mount paired with an ACSS Red Dot optic on an AK-style rifle. The test involves repeatedly removing and reattaching the mount, as well as drop testing the rifle and optic assembly, to verify its ability to hold zero at distances up to 200 yards. The instructor, from AK Operators Union, emphasizes the reliability of the system, attributing any misses to shooter error rather than hardware failure, showcasing E-E-A-T through practical application and product endorsement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the RS Regulate 301M mount hold zero on an AK after being removed and reinstalled?

Yes, the RS Regulate 301M mount demonstrated excellent zero retention throughout the test. It was repeatedly removed and reinstalled, and even after drop tests, it maintained zero at 100 and 200 yards, indicating a highly reliable mounting system for AK platforms.

How durable is the RS Regulate mount and ACSS Red Dot system?

The system proved to be very durable. The rifle and optic mount assembly were intentionally dropped onto grass, and the zero was still held upon reattachment. This suggests the combination is robust enough for demanding field conditions.

What kind of accuracy can be expected with an ACSS Red Dot on an AK at longer ranges?

While the red dot is primarily for close-to-medium range, a 300-yard group of 0.891 MOA (approximately 2.79 inches) was achieved from prone with Wolf FMJ and the SLR107FR, showcasing the potential for precision with the right setup and shooter skill.
