This type of mount was identical to the type used on the SVD Dragunov but was only fitted to specialized versions of most weapons, such as the AK-74N and AKMN. This mount is fitted to all new AK-74M rifles used by the Russian Army. Weapons fitted with this mount can also utilize other Soviet optics, such as the PSO-1 and PGO-7 scope for the RPG-7.

A base can thus sometimes constitute a complete scope mount assembly, but is most often used to refer to the lower part of a two-part scope mount assembly. The firearm interface which sits on the firearm and to which the scope mount is attached is often called the base or rail. Some types of bases are: Standard mounts
