Overview

Designed for rifles equipped with a Picatinny rail, this offset mount gives hunters a practical way to add a red dot alongside a primary optic. Its 45-degree layout supports a quick transition from magnified aiming to close-range use without changing your grip or shifting your head position. The mount is compatible with DeltaPoint Pro and Micro T-2 footprints, and it helps keep rail space available for other accessories. Built from 6061 aluminum, it offers a lightweight, low-profile option for streamlined setups.

Pros

Considerations & Trade-offs

  • Requires a compatible red dot footprint; it is limited to DeltaPoint Pro and Micro T-2 setups.
  • The 45-degree offset layout is intended for a secondary aiming option, so it adds another control point to your rifle setup rather than replacing a primary optic.
  • It occupies Picatinny rail space and is meant to balance accessory placement, so it may require planning around existing lights, lasers, or other mounted gear.
  • The package includes mounting plates and tools, but the user still needs to confirm fitment with their specific rifle and optic combination before installation.
