Who This Is For
This mount is ideal for hunters, competitive long-range shooters, and tactical riflemen who run Trijicon variable power optics — or any quality 30mm scope with an objective lens up to 56mm — and need a lightweight, low-profile cantilever mount that holds zero through heavy recoil, rough field conditions, and repeated removal and reinstallation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Trijicon Cantilever Mount fit my non-Trijicon scope?
Yes. While this mount is designed with Trijicon variable power optics in mind, it is compatible with any 30mm scope tube regardless of brand, provided the objective lens does not exceed 56mm. The 1.59" height and cantilever design offer generous clearance for larger objective bells commonly found on hunting and precision scopes.
How reliable is the return-to-zero when removing and remounting this optic?
The Trijicon Cantilever Mount features precision-cut dimensions and a quick-release lever system engineered for repeatable, automatic retention. Shooters consistently report negligible zero shift after repeated removal and reinstallation, making this mount an excellent choice for multi-rifle setups or optics shared between platforms.
Is this mount suitable for hard-recoiling calibers and magnum rifles?
Absolutely. The 6061-T6 aluminum construction meets Mil-Spec drop-test standards, and the flush bolt and locking lever design resist movement under sustained recoil. This mount has been tested and trusted on full-power magnum calibers and semi-automatic platforms where optic stability under repeated firing cycles is critical.
