Smartclip Multi-AX Reduction Ring for Hikmicro

About Smartclip

Smartclip is a Slovenian company known for its manufacture of adapters for clip-on devices, noted for their robust construction and superior finish. The adapters feature a distinctive lever that closes inward toward the adapter body, unlike many competitors' adapters where the lever shifts from the rear (loose) to the front (fixed). Hunters often detach the clip-on from the scope to swiftly scan the area. In the dark, particularly when excited by the sounds of nearby wildlife, there's a risk of quickly bringing the device close to the face, potentially poking the eye or surrounding skin with the lever in the loose position. Ludwig Dvojmoč, the company’s founder, developed the unique lever design in response to several injuries caused by traditional lever mechanisms, effectively eliminating the risk of such mishaps.

Ludwig Dvojmoč has experience working with well-known companies in the sports optics industry, such as Zeiss and Aimpoint. He played a pivotal role in establishing the Slovenian chapter of the International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC) and contributed to the amendment of several rules in the competition overall.

What is a reducing ring/converter?

Adapters that serve as a basis for clip-on mounting feature a M52x0.75 thread on one side and a riflescope objective attachment mechanism on the other. If you wish to mount a clip-on with any other thread/bayonet on your riflescope, you have two options. You can either purchase a one-piece solution, which has limited size options, or a two-piece adapter. The two-piece adapter consists of a M52x0.75 thread adapter combined with a suitable reducing ring or converter.

Mounting instructions

Mounting the reducing ring on the adapter

Place the konusring onto the reducing ring, ensuring that the thread on the konusring faces away from the thread used for mounting it onto the clip-on. Align the AS adapter with the M52x0.75 thread in the konusring. Carefully thread the adapter onto the konusring, stopping just shortly of fully threading it. 

Mounting a device with the Hikmicro mounting standard on the reducing ring

Position the reducing ring so that it is aligned with the attachment system on the clip-on. Connect the internal thread on the clip-on’s ring with the external thread on the reducing ring, threading it fully. Utilize the konusring with the provided wrench to adjust the adapter's positioning, ensuring the lever remains easily accessible when the device is mounted on the clip-on. Once you are satisfied with the positioning, tighten the konusring with the provided wrench.
