Texas Weapon Systems Bitty Dot Mount For Red Dot Sight Picatinny 5-Slot Black
The Texas Weapon Systems Bitty Dot Mount for red dot sight is a lightweight, compact Picatinny mount engineered for AK platforms. Built with a 5-slot Picatinny rail interface, this mount is designed to hold low-profile red dot sights in the lowest possible position for lower-third co-witness with your rifle's iron sights. It's built for shooters who want minimal weight and bulk while keeping their optic rock-solid—ideal for AK hunters, tactical shooters, and anyone running a modern red dot on a Yugo or Russian pattern receiver.
What makes the Bitty Dot Mount stand out is its engineering: a large front tab with girder design keeps the assembly stiff while keeping total weight to just 1.3 ounces. The integral rear sight follows the original AK design philosophy, and the mount uses a proven nut-plate attachment system rather than relying on tiny screws that can strip out over time. A single larger bolt secures everything, simplifying installation and improving reliability. The 6061-T6 aluminum body is finished in matte hard black anodize for durability in the field.
Installation is straightforward with no permanent modifications required to your rifle. The package includes the sight mount, hinge pin with E-clip, nut plate, socket head cap screw (8-32 x 5/16), and instructions. It fits Russian and Yugo pattern AK rifles with a standard rear sight block.
