Overview
This modular offset optic mount is built for AR15 setups that pair a red dot with a primary scope, giving the shooter a choice of 35 or 45 degree placement without adding extra components. The 35 degree option sits closer to slimmer, smaller scopes, while the 45 degree option offers more room around wider turrets or larger, higher-magnification optics. Mounted to the top Picatinny rail, it keeps the offset sight centered over the bore when the rifle is canted and maintains a lower 1/3 co-witness height. It is a practical choice for hunters and shooters who want a streamlined transition to a close-range aiming option on a scoped rifle.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for AR15 top Picatinny rail use, so it is not a universal mount for other platforms or rail setups.
- The 35° and 45° offset options solve different clearance needs, but the right choice depends on your optic and scope profile.
- This is an optic plate only; additional red dot sight components are not included.
- The listed tall height range (1.9"–2.2") makes fitment a key consideration for matching your setup.

Frequently Asked Questions
What mounting positions does this offset optic mount support?
It allows the user to select either a 35-degree or 45-degree offset position for a red dot sight without needing additional components.
What is this mount designed to attach to?
It is designed to attach to the top Picatinny rail of an AR15 rifle.
Why would a hunter choose the 35-degree position instead of the 45-degree position?
According to the product description, the 35-degree position brings the red dot sight closer to slimmer, smaller scopes, while the 45-degree position provides additional clearance around wider turrets or larger, higher-magnification scopes.
Does the product description say how the optic sits when the rifle is canted?
Yes. When the rifle is canted to use the offset red dot sight, the optic remains centered over the bore and maintains a lower 1/3 co-witness height.
What details are not provided in the source data?
The source data does not provide blade-related information, and it also does not specify material details, dimensions, weight, or performance claims beyond the mounting and co-witness information stated in the description.
