Frequently Asked Questions
Which Aimpoint Acro models is this mount compatible with?
The KDG Sidelok is designed specifically for the Aimpoint Acro series of micro red dot sights. This includes the Acro P-1 and Acro P-2. It is not intended for other micro red dot footprints, so verify your optic's footprint before purchasing to ensure a proper fit.
Will the Sidelok truly return to zero after removing and remounting the optic?
Yes — the patented dual-stage cam-lock system is engineered for repeatable return-to-zero accuracy when the mount is reattached to the same Picatinny rail slot. As with any QD mount, best practice is to verify zero after any optic removal, especially if the mount is repositioned on the rail.
Does this mount require any tools or extra hardware to install or release?
No tools are required. The KDG Sidelok's patented cam mechanism locks and releases entirely by hand, making it one of the fastest tool-free QD mounting systems available. There are no levers, knobs, or hex keys needed — just a firm, deliberate motion engages or releases the lock, keeping your optic swap times to a minimum.
