The Burris SmartClip Thermal Mount delivers precision mounting for thermal optics with its innovative quick-detach design. This 34mm aluminum ring mount maintains zero repeatability while allowing rapid optic changes in the field. Built specifically for thermal imaging devices, the SmartClip system eliminates the need for tools during mounting operations.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional ring mounts that require allen keys and careful torque specifications, the SmartClip system uses a proprietary lever mechanism for instant attachment and removal. The mount maintains consistent return-to-zero accuracy within 0.25 MOA across multiple mounting cycles. Internal shock-dampening technology protects sensitive thermal sensors from recoil forces that can damage standard electronic optics.
Key Features
- Tool-free quick-detach lever system for rapid optic changes
- 34mm tube diameter accommodates most thermal imaging scopes
- 6061-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hard anodizing
- Integrated recoil lugs prevent scope movement under heavy recoil
- Low-profile design maintains proper cheek weld alignment
- Picatinny rail compatibility fits standard MIL-STD-1913 platforms
- Return-to-zero repeatability rated at 0.25 MOA or better
Field performance testing shows the SmartClip maintains zero retention through temperature extremes from -40°F to 160°F. The mount handles recoil forces up to .338 Lapua Magnum without scope shift or mechanical failure. Hunters appreciate the ability to quickly switch between thermal and traditional optics during dawn and dusk transitions. Law enforcement units benefit from rapid deployment capabilities during dynamic situations.
