Product Overview
Built for lasting performance, the Vortex Precision QR Extended Cantilever Mount features dual quick-release levers for easy installation and removal, with a cantilever base for mounting in a forward location that provides optimal eye relief and head placement on AR-15 flattop rifles.
Constructed of 6061-T6 architectural aluminium with a Type 3 hard-coat anodized finish, this mount holds your scope's 30mm maintube at a 2-inch forward offset, positioning the optical axis 1.45in (37mm) above the base. Note: this quick-release design is not compatible with the Precision Diving Board Mount — pair the standard Precision Extended Cantilever Mount instead if you need diving-board compatibility.
