Fast, lightweight, and functional; the Scalarworks LEAP Magnifier Quick Detach Mount is one of the best mounts on the market for the Aimpoint 3X-C, 3XMag, 3XMag-1, and 6XMag-1. The LEAP mount is machined from 7075-T6 aluminum and uses 4140H steel hardware for absolute rigidity that results in a near-seamless integration between your rifle and optic. Scalarworks knows that every weapon's system should be streamlined and that's why they developed their ClickDrive quick-detach mechanism that eliminates the need for protruding levers, bolts, and knobs. The ClickDrive mechanism is also intuitive, self-adjusting, and completely recoil proof. Thanks to the ClickDrive mechanism and the mount's absolute rigidity, LEAP mounts are guaranteed to hold AND return to zero!One of the most notable features of the Scalarworks LEAP Aimpoint Magnifier Mount, is the ring design. Unlike most ring mounts that utilize a separating ring system, the LEAP Mount utilizes a high-strength precision hinge that ensures even pressure around the optic. The Scalarworks ring secures using twin oversized shoulder screws for enhanced rigidity and weight reduction.The ultra-smooth flipping action and positive lock-up of the LEAP magnifier mount is owed to the opposing 4mm ball detents acting against nitrided chromoly steel plates. To retain balance in the weapons system and to help keep the shooter's peripherals clear when the magnifier is in the side position, the mount features a short throw distance.
