The TruGlo TG8980B Picatinny Riser Mount elevates optics to the optimal height for proper cheek weld and sight alignment on AR-15 platforms and other tactical rifles. This precision-machined aluminum mount creates the necessary clearance for magnified optics while maintaining rock-solid zero retention.

What Makes This Different

Unlike basic polymer risers, the TG8980B features aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum construction with Type III hard anodizing for maximum durability. The mount's precisely machined Picatinny slots ensure perfect rail engagement without wobble or shift. Four heavy-duty cross-bolts distribute clamping force evenly across the rail interface, preventing damage to both mount and rail surfaces.

Key Features

  • Aircraft-grade 6061-T6 aluminum construction for lightweight strength
  • Type III hard anodized matte black finish resists wear and corrosion
  • Precision-machined Picatinny slots for secure rail engagement
  • Four cross-bolt clamping system distributes stress evenly
  • Low-profile design minimizes added bulk and weight
  • Compatible with standard Picatinny and Weaver rail systems
  • Integrated recoil lugs prevent forward movement under heavy recoil
The mount handles repeated recoil from high-powered cartridges without loosening or shifting zero. Law enforcement agencies rely on similar TruGlo mounts for duty rifles where equipment failure isn't an option. The hard anodized finish withstands harsh field conditions including saltwater exposure and extreme temperature variations. Competition shooters appreciate the consistent return to zero when removing and reinstalling optics.
