The Trijicon AC22052 Cantilever Scope Mount delivers precision mounting for 34mm tube optics on Picatinny rail systems. This aluminum mount provides the rigid platform needed for maintaining zero through heavy recoil and extended use. Built for tactical applications where scope positioning and repeatability matter most.
What Makes This Different
The cantilever design extends scope positioning forward without requiring rail space directly above the receiver. This configuration allows proper eye relief with shorter stocks while maintaining full access to charging handles and ejection ports. The single-piece construction eliminates potential alignment issues found in two-piece ring systems, ensuring consistent scope-to-bore relationship shot after shot.
Key Features
- 34mm tube diameter accommodates modern tactical and precision optics
- Cantilever design provides 1.5-inch forward scope positioning
- Matte black aluminum construction resists corrosion and wear
- Picatinny rail interface fits standard MIL-STD-1913 rails
- Integrated bubble level assists with cant elimination
- Torque specifications marked for proper installation
- Low-profile design minimizes snag hazards
Field testing demonstrates this mount maintains zero through temperature extremes and sustained firing sessions. The aluminum alloy construction handles recoil from magnum cartridges while adding minimal weight to the rifle system. Law enforcement agencies specify similar cantilever mounts for patrol rifle applications where quick target acquisition and reliable tracking are essential.
