30MM AR-STYLE RIFLE CANTILEVER SCOPE MOUNT Reviews & Ratings

30MM CANTILEVER SCOPE MOUNT

The Brownells AR-15 Cantilever Scope Mount is a true one-piece scope mounting solution for your AR-type "Modern Sporting Rifle." It positions the scope forward to give you plenty of eye relief, while it elevates the scope high enough for a comfortable head position and plenty of clearance for the objective bell. Machined from a solid billet of 6061 T6 aluminum, our AR-15 Cantilever Scope Mount is lightweight, strong, and rigid. A pair of hardened steel 1/2" hex nuts provide tremendous locking force to ensure your mount - and the scope attached to it - stays in place. Remove the mount/scope unit from the rifle and reinstall it with little-to-no shift in the scope’s zero.

Positions centerline of optic 1.4" above receiver - ideal for comfortable head position
Fits scopes with 30mm tubes
Attaches to standard Picatinny receiver rail slots
Weighs only 7.5 oz.
Proudly Made in the U.S.A.

A Brownells AR-15 Cantilever Scope Mount gives any 30mm scope you choose to mount on your rifle a solid, stable, secure platform that helps you enjoy the best performance from both rifle and optic.

Not Aligned; May crush scope

Torqued a Vortex strike eagle as per specs. Cap bolts were tightened iteratively in a diagonal fashion up to 17 inch-pounds. Scope then because blurry at anything past 6x. After triple checking everything, I removed the scope from the mount and found the scope slightly crushed on the front tube. I lapped the mount to see if the mount had an issue. The front cap was misaligned pretty bad. You can see where the lapping took off material from the front cap but nowhere else. This was a first pass. It took a lot more work to get this mount aligned. Luckily - Vortexs warranty was awesome and they fixed for free. But Brownells wouldnt take the mount back - not even for a Quality Control check (this was before I lapped it). Lap this mount before using it or youll be rolling the dice.
