UTG 5-Slot QD Lever Mount Adaptor and Riser, Medium Profile , Black

I bought this for my custom built AR-15 SBR to raise a Primary Arms Red Dot Sight. When I bought my RDS, it had such a low-profile base/mount that it was awkard, unnatural, and uncomfortable to look through, I found the UTG 5-Slot QD Riser (medium profile) and it worked wonders!The UTG QD Riser brought my Primary Arms RDS to a perfect, natural, and comfortable height for my needs that I am happy with. I am not co-witnessing with this riser, but you could do so depending on your optics/RDS height and iron sights. Keep in mind this is just a QD riser, not a dovetail mount. After several hundreds rounds fired and 3 removals of the QD riser and re-attachments, my site is still zeroed in while being on the UTG QD Riser.It's a quality product that doesn't weigh too much (3 oz), the riser has a length of approx. 2.25" long and a height of approx .75". It fit perfectly on my Side Charging Upper with a standard 1913 picatinny rail.Overall I would highly recommend it.--------------------------------FAQs--------------------------------Q: How long is the riser?A: Approx 2.25"-2.3".Q: How tall is the riser?A: Approx .75" (3/4").Q: How much does the riser weigh?A: Approx 3oz.Q: Is this Absolute Co-witness?A: Depends on your optic height and if you are using any other mounts.Q: Does this fit a 20mm rail?A: Yes, it fits a standard 1913 picatinny rail.Q: Will this handle the .223 Remmington or 5.56mm recoil?A: Yes, I have shot both .223 and 5.56mm ammo (hundreds upon hundreds of rounds) with no issues.Q: If a RDS is mounted, and you detach and re-attached will the RDS hold zero?A: Yes, as long as you've mounted on the same firearm.Q: Will this attached to a weaver base?A: YesQ: How much will this riser raise iron sights?A: About .5" (1/2").

This UTG 5-Slot Universal Quick Disconnect Lever Lock Adapter and Riser is the bomb. Now I can install or remove, pretty much any accessory I want to use with it, in seconds instead of minutes. I am presently using mine to hold my SigTac CP-1 scope into place effortlessly. It will really pay off when its time to protect the scope by simply flipping a single lever, and pulling the scope off, prior to cleaning my AR15 after a long day at the range. Very well made, great fit, and the lever is super to easy adjust with an enclosed allen wrench, to get just the right clamping pressure to hold your accessory snug and tight.It's not too long so as to take up too much space once it's mounted. Raises the scope about .5 inches for easier target acquisition. I am very pleased with this purchase, and will inform all my friends and family, just how great this mount riser is. You can't go wrong for under $20.00.

Works Fine.

I usually avoid UTG stuff due to it being “cheap” in past experiences. But I am also self aware enough to recognize that the cost of an item is usually the first driving factor in my assessment of its quality (and I think manufacturers these days are banking on people like me) so the consistently low price of UTG stuff has generally kept me away. Well, I had already bought an expensive mount for my MRO and it turned out to still be too low and I really didn’t want to drop another $90 +/- for a simple riser. I decided to say screw it and give UTG a try since it has been almost a decode since I was last in a position where UTG was viable for me. The riser is solid and seems well constructed. The lever is a tad unsightly and the riser itself is a little bulky looking, but for the money I am really impressed. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone who just needs a little more height in their red dot and doesn’t want to be price gauged for the sake of a brand name.

Love it, love it, love it! This item is excellent for red/green dot sights that need to be raised to eye level. I recently purchased a new generation UTG red/green dot sight system for my AR-15 platform and needed a riser that would also allow the sight to become quick detachable. This product meets all those needs for me and more. Not only does this riser bring the optic to the eye level without messing up the alignment of the sight with the bore but it also makes the sight easier to put on the rifle and take off at the same time. The quick release lever works well and can be adjusted to fit your needs as a shooter. I know this riser has 5 slots which will fit most red/green dots but just ensure you have 30 days to return the product in case it does not work out for your particular set up. It fit my UTG optic just fine and has made it very easy to both use and detach from the rifle. After using the rifle to run 'n' gun a couple times the red/green dot did hold zero so this riser is pretty tough to take the recoil from a .223/5.56 centerfire rifle. Not sure how it would perform with 30 caliber but it's all aluminum/aluminium so it should have no problems. All in all, a great product that is highly recommended!

installs easily, snugs up tight. no wiggle or wobble. a couple drops of oil where the cam lever presses against the tension arm made it smooth out well. a big fan for lower third cowitness and easy removal for cleaning, maintenance or emergency. nice value in a nice mount, not too heavy either. thanks a bunch!

It's OK. Will serve its purpose. The one problem with mine is when you get the unit secure enough to not move, it becomes quite hard to detach with the quick-detach release. I can do it, but it seems to be a bit too difficult.
