Burris 410340 Picatinny Riser 1/2 Inch Height Black Aluminum

The Burris 410340 Picatinny Riser elevates optics by precisely 0.5 inches, providing optimal cheek weld and sight alignment for tactical applications. This machined aluminum riser block transforms standard rail configurations into ergonomically superior shooting platforms. Constructed from 6061-T6 aluminum with Type III hard coat anodizing, the riser delivers military-grade durability while maintaining zero under heavy recoil.

What Makes This Different

Unlike generic risers that compromise stability, the Burris 410340 features a solid one-piece construction that eliminates flex points. The precision-machined Picatinny slots ensure perfect rail alignment with +/- 0.001-inch tolerances. Cross-bolt mounting system distributes clamping force evenly across the entire contact surface, preventing rail damage and maintaining consistent torque specifications.

Key Features

• Raises optic mounting height by exactly 0.5 inches for improved ergonomics
• Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with Type III hard coat anodizing
• MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail compatibility on top and bottom surfaces
• Cross-bolt clamping system with steel hardware prevents rail slippage
• Precision-machined slots maintain +/- 0.001-inch dimensional accuracy
• Weighs 2.1 ounces without adding unnecessary bulk to rifle systems
• Compatible with standard Picatinny ring sets and mounting systems

Field testing demonstrates consistent zero retention through temperature extremes from -40°F to 140°F. The hard coat anodizing resists corrosion in marine environments and maintains finish integrity after 10,000+ round counts. Law enforcement agencies specify this riser for patrol rifle configurations where rapid target acquisition requires optimal scope positioning. Competition shooters rely on the consistent 0.5-inch elevation for repeatable cheek weld across multiple rifle platforms.
