Overview
Built for AR type upper receivers, this extended scope mount is intended to position a 30mm optic with the rear ring pushed forward 1" for improved eye relief. It fits Mil-Spec 1913 Picatinny rails and uses a cross-slot keyway for recoil protection, making it a practical choice for secure optic mounting on compatible setups. The rigid 6061 T6 extruded aluminum construction keeps the profile light and streamlined, with a stated weight of 3.07 oz. For hunters and shooters who want a minimal mount without unnecessary bulk, it offers a clean, purpose-driven option for high-end optics.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed for AR type upper receivers, so it may not suit rifles outside that platform without checking fitment first.
- The extended cantilever layout pushes the rear ring forward 1"; that helps eye relief but adds a fixed mounting position rather than a more compact profile.
- At 3.07 oz, it is very light, but the streamlined design may offer fewer material-heavy features than bulkier mounts.
- This is a 30mm, 0 MOA mount, so it is intended for that optic size and a level mounting setup rather than a canted elevation solution.
