View Full Version : Best AR mount for trijicon rmr?
I want a sleek sbr as low profile as possible, want a cowitness with buis, if it was possible to go lower I would
If you want to cowitness it is not going to be low profile.
I never thought I would say it but for a cowitness mount I like the one made by Botach.
American defence also makes one.

I like this one! good choice!
This one is almost a half inch lower http://www.americandefensemanufacturing.com/view/product/241/
If you're looking for a low profile one, take a look at Trijicon's OEM mounts. They have a low pro mount.

Yes it is probably the lowest one on the market, but it will not cowitness.

That one won't cowitness his iron sights. It may also be more difficult to get a good view and cheekweld. I believe it's intended for guns that are piston driven and have a higher line of sight (Sig 556, etc.)
This one is .87" above the rail for use with A2 sights or Gen 2 MBUS

This one is for Troy MICRO sights and is .75" above the rail.

ADM is extremely helpful and if the OP emails or calls they will make sure you get the parts you need.

Maybe all of us are misunderstanding what he wants. If he wants to cowitness only one height works. I never understood why cowitness was worth talking about unless you are running an FSB.

There are actually 2 heights that will cowitness. I didn't link the SOCOM height because he wants as short a mount as he can run. The SOCOM height mounts let you see your irons in the lower 1/3 of the optic.
I think as trends go you are correct that a fixed FSB is the most common reason. But even with flip up sights a shooter may need to use them through their glass. The ADM mounts are quick release so you could ditch it if it fails. But many of the red dot mounts are not quick on/off so using flip up irons through it is still a concern.
I specified cowitness because I knew the lower 1/3 would raise the optic, and didn't think anything lower than cowitness (like upper 1/3) was an option with flip up sights
Thanks for the info. I did not think about micro sights. The Troy are shorter than standard?anything else like KAC micros?
The Knights Micros are standard M4 height. Troy Micros are shorter to maintain standard cheek weld/sight picture on piston guns with taller rails. The height optic mount you use should be based your shooting style and gun fit. I don't give a rat about cowitness but lower 1/3 height mounts fit me better.
I'm a bit surprised you don't see regular AR's with the shorter (AK/shotgun) mounts and micro sights.
