Considerations & Trade-offs

Designed specifically for the Trijicon Miniature Rifle Optic, so it is not a universal mount for other optics.
The co-witness / lower-third co-witness height choice is application-dependent, and lower 1/3 is the taller option.
The QD Auto Lock lever is adjustable without proprietary tools, but setup still requires choosing the preferred lock direction and rail fit.
The mount is built around 6061 T6 aluminum with a hard coat Type 3 Mil-Spec anodize, which may be more than needed for simple range use but suits a dedicated optic setup.
