The Trijicon MRO Levered Quick Release Lower 1/3 Co-Witness Mount features a Mil-Spec drop test rated aircraft grade aluminum design with an intuitive lever-locking design. The lever is designed to be locked to the front or to the rear making the mount fully ambidextrous. Additionally the paddle also includes an expanded grip zone making mounting and removing the optic simple and efficient. The lever also has a through-hole that allows users to tie down the optic and mount with paracord to provide further security in combat or extreme conditions.The mount features a low weight low profile design and offers return to zero capability with any Picatinny rail. The Lower 1/3 Co-Witness height positions the MRO higher than back up iron sights resulting in a clearer field of view. The iron sights remain visible in the lower 1/3 of your optical window for use as a backup.
