Whether you're a competitive shooter, a tactical professional, or a firearms enthusiast building your ultimate AR, this mount addresses the common challenge of achieving the ideal red dot height relative to your iron sights. The vibrant red anodized finish not only adds a distinctive, custom look to your firearm but also signifies Strike Industries' commitment to both form and function. This mount is available to elevate your AR build through reputable retailers like DEGuns.

Optimizing Your AR Platform with the Strike Industries T1 Riser

For many AR-15 and AR-10 users, the quest for the perfect optic setup often leads to questions about co-witnessing and mount height. "What is the best way to mount a T1 red dot on an AR?" or "How do I achieve a lower 1/3 co-witness with my micro red dot?" are common inquiries. The Strike Industries T1 Riser Mount is a direct answer to these needs. It provides a stable, repeatable platform that positions your T1/T2 footprint optic at the ideal height for a natural head position and rapid sight acquisition.

Key Features and Benefits of the REX T1 Riser Mount

  • Modular Design for Customizable Height: The core innovation of this mount lies in its modularity. It includes a rail base mount, a lower 1/3 height spacer, and an absolute mount. This comprehensive package means you don't have to guess or buy multiple mounts; you can precisely configure your optic for your preferred co-witness style. This adaptability ensures that whether you prefer a clearer sight picture (lower 1/3) or absolute redundancy with your iron sights, the REX T1 Riser has you covered.
  • Optimal Co-Witness Heights:
    • Absolute Co-Witness: When configured for absolute co-witness, your red dot aligns perfectly with your iron sights. This provides a traditional sight picture where both your red dot and iron sight posts are on the same plane, offering an immediate backup if your optic fails.
    • Lower 1/3 Co-Witness: By utilizing the included spacer, the mount achieves a lower 1/3 co-witness. This positions your red dot slightly above your iron sights, allowing for an unobstructed view through the optic. Your iron sights remain visible in the lower third of your sight picture, providing a quick transition to backup sights without cluttering your primary aiming point. Many shooters prefer this setup for its cleaner field of view and natural head position.
  • Lightweight and Low Profile Construction: Weighing in at a mere 2.30 ounces, the T1 Riser Mount adds minimal bulk to your firearm. This focus on weight reduction is crucial for maintaining a balanced rifle, reducing shooter fatigue, and ensuring swift maneuverability. Its low-profile design also means it won't snag on gear or interfere with other accessories mounted on your Picatinny rail.
  • Durable Red Anodized Finish: Crafted from high-grade aluminum, the mount is not only lightweight but also incredibly durable. The red anodized finish provides superior corrosion resistance, enhances wear resistance, and offers a striking aesthetic. This distinctive color choice is perfect for those looking to add a personalized touch to their AR build while ensuring long-term performance and resilience in various environments.
  • Secure Picatinny Rail Mount: Designed for standard Picatinny rails (MIL-STD-1913), the mount provides a rock-solid attachment. The included mounting hardware ensures a tight and secure fit, critical for maintaining zero and reliability under recoil and harsh conditions. A stable mount is foundational to repeatable accuracy, and Strike Industries delivers on this front.
  • Compact Dimensions: With a length of 0.93 inches, a height of 2.09 inches (when fully assembled for max height), and a width of 1 inch, this mount offers a compact footprint. This minimal size ensures it won't take up excessive rail space, leaving room for other essential accessories like lights, lasers, or magnifiers.

Why Precision in Optic Mounting Matters

For any shooter, the interface between their optic and firearm is paramount to performance. An unstable or incorrectly positioned optic can lead to inconsistencies in aim, slow target acquisition, and an uncomfortable shooting posture. The Strike Industries T1 Riser Mount solves these issues by providing a dedicated, precision-machined platform.

  • Enhanced Ergonomics: Achieving the correct optic height directly impacts your cheek weld and overall shooting posture. A properly positioned red dot allows for a natural, comfortable head position, reducing neck strain during extended shooting sessions and promoting consistent sight alignment.
  • Faster Target Acquisition: With your red dot at the ideal height, your eye naturally finds the reticle upon shouldering the rifle. This reduces valuable milliseconds in target acquisition, which can be critical in competitive shooting or defensive scenarios.
  • Reliable Zero Retention: The robust construction and secure mounting mechanism of the Strike Industries mount ensure that your optic maintains its zero even after thousands of rounds or rough handling. This reliability is a testament to the quality engineering Strike Industries is known for.

Installation and Compatibility

Installing the Strike Industries T1 Riser Mount is straightforward, designed for ease of use by shooters of all experience levels. The package includes all necessary mounting hardware, allowing for quick and secure attachment to any standard Picatinny rail section on your AR platform. To achieve your desired co-witness height, simply select between the direct absolute mount or add the lower 1/3 spacer. Always ensure your rifle is unloaded and safe before beginning any installation.

This mount is compatible with any red dot optic utilizing the Aimpoint T1/T2 footprint. This includes popular models from brands like Aimpoint (T1, T2, H1, H2), Sig Sauer (Romeo5), Holosun (403, 503, 515, 530 series), and many others that share this widely adopted mounting interface. Its versatility makes it an excellent upgrade for a broad range of micro red dots.
