AD Recon-S QD scope mount, 40mm, 40 MOA

1. Quick Detach Repeatability: The Recon-S mount features American Defense’s renowned Auto Lock™ Lever system, allowing for rapid attachment and detachment with an impressive 100% return-to-zero. This critical feature is especially valued by hunters and tactical shooters who need to quickly swap optics or perform rifle maintenance without re-zeroing, saving valuable time in the field and ensuring consistent performance.

2. Integrated 40 MOA Cant: This mount incorporates a significant 40 MOA (approximately 20 MIL) forward cant. By pre-canting the optical axis, it maximises the available elevation adjustment in your scope, allowing you to effectively engage targets at extreme distances. This is a vital advantage for competitive shooters and hunters who require precise long-range capabilities without exhausting their scope's internal adjustments.

3. Robust 6061-T6 Aluminium Construction: Crafted from a solid block of high-strength 6061-T6 aluminium, the Recon-S QD mount delivers exceptional structural integrity and lightweight performance. The material, combined with precise CNC machining in the USA, ensures the mount can withstand harsh recoil and extreme environmental conditions without compromising your optic’s zero. A hard-coat anodised finish further enhances its resistance to abrasions and corrosion.

4. Optimised Ergonomics and Compatibility: With a 50.8 mm (2-inch) forward offset, the mount provides ideal eye relief, particularly on AR-platform rifles, preventing cramped shooting positions. Its monoblock design ensures perfect ring alignment and superior rigidity. A central recoil lug firmly engages with the Picatinny rail, preventing any movement under heavy recoil, guaranteeing a rock-solid foundation for your precision optic. It is important to note its central recoil lug makes it incompatible with rifles featuring two-piece Picatinny rails.

Unlike standard flat mounts, the built-in 40 MOA (20 MIL) forward cant significantly extends your scope's elevation capabilities, making it ideal for engaging targets at extreme distances without running out of internal adjustment. This mount is meticulously crafted in the USA from aerospace-grade 6061-T6 aluminium, ensuring both lightness and exceptional durability. Designed with a generous 50.8 mm (2-inch) forward offset, the Recon-S provides optimal eye relief on AR-style rifles, promoting comfortable and consistent shooting postures. The core differentiating feature is the proprietary QD Auto Lock™ Lever system, which guarantees 100% return-to-zero repeatability after detaching and reattaching your optic. This quick-detach capability, paired with its robust monoblock construction and hard-coat anodisation, makes it an indispensable tool for hunters and tactical users who frequently transport their firearms or require quick adaptation to various shooting scenarios. Its design ensures a rock-solid connection to MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails, minimising any potential for shift or loosening, even under heavy recoil. This mount is precisely engineered to provide hunters with a reliable and efficient setup for long-range shots, ensuring your optic remains perfectly aligned shot after shot.
