Badger Ordnance Condition One 12 O'Clock Aimpoint Micro TOP Mount Ring Cap for 35mm

Piggy back your Aimpoint Micro over a Leupold Mark 5HD with this top mount.

For years shooters have been adding back up sighting systems to their rifles. Sometimes it is offset or folding co-witnessed iron sights. Offset micro red dots have been popular for some time now. One position that can be overlooked is 12 o'clock on top of the primary optic. This has been done in the past with things like the Leupold HAMR or Trijicon ACOG. The set up has several advantages and several companies have tried to find the best way to accomplish this. One problem that shooters run into trying to build this kind of optics package is that finding the optimal mounting solution can be difficult. Generic railed top rings can give too little rail space for the desired optic. Diving boards are a great solution but may not give sufficient clearance for some larger objective scopes. Badger Ordnance takes their years of manufacturing expertise and offers a top mount ring cap for the Condition One 35mm mount.

Key Features:

• Mounts directly to the 12 o'clock position on Condition One mounts
• Fits Aimpoint Micro optics for lightning-quick target acquisition
• Engineered for minimal clearance over Leupold Mark 5HD elevation turrets
• Machined from 7075 T6 aluminum and type III hardcoat anodized

A piggybacked red dot has several advantages over other systems. When used with some heavier rifles or rifles with raised combs, an offset 45 degree optic may be more difficult to use. A red dot will be faster than irons. With the popularity of more natural heads up shooting, the 12 o'clock mount brings the optic to the level of popular riser mounts. And it's not only close range, quick shots that make the piggyback dot a nice accessory. When trying to get high magnification scopes on target at extended range, shooters often have to search around. By using the red dot as a quick viewfinder, the shooter can get to the area they wish to glass faster and then drop their eye level down to the scope without having to shift the rifle.

With the same sleek and sturdy Mil-Spec Type III Hardcoat Anodized Aluminum construction as the Condition One upon which it mounts, the Aimpoint Micro mount is light and compact. Only as big as it needs to be, it positions the window just barely over the elevation turret of a Leupold Mark 5 HD (the most popular series of 35mm riflescope). This attention to detail shows why Badger Ordnance leads the field in optical accessories.

NOTE: Not compatible with C1 MAX mounts.
