You can't. The Konica Hexanon is a Leica rangefinder M mount lens. You can't fit those on a SLR body, as the rear element sits much closer to the film/sensor plane in rangefinders.

Oops, missed the "AR" part. Yes, there are adapters that were made a long time ago, but I don't know of anyone who makes one now. Even if you do find one, you may not be able to focus to infinity due to manufacturing tolerances. Maybe Novoflex or Genus makes one?
