✔️ Improved Sight Alignment – Raises optic to the correct height for your cheek weld and shooting position
✔️ Accommodate Eye Relief – Ideal for large-objective scopes or shooters using magnifiers
✔️ Co-Witness with Iron Sights – Align red dots or holographic sights with BUIS
✔️ Increased Clearance – Overcomes obstructions like front sights or handguard rails
✔️ Night Vision & Gear Compatible – Elevate optics for NVG, masks, or plate carriers
Whether you're on the range or in the field, scope risers help you shoot faster and more comfortably with your optic of choice.
📏 Choosing the Right Riser Height
| Riser Height | Use Case | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 inch | Low profile, red dots, magnifiers | Co-witness or close pairing |
| 1 inch | Medium height, LPVOs or traditional scopes | Better with full-size optics |
| Cantilever | Adds forward offset | Ideal for longer eye relief |
| QD (Quick Detach) | Tool-less removal | Great for backup setups or switching optics |
Tip: Match the riser height with your optic mount to achieve the optimal centerline height (~1.5" to 1.93") depending on use.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will these risers fit my AR-15?
A: Yes. All risers listed fit standard 1913 Picatinny top rails, common to most AR-15, AR-10, and tactical rifle builds.
Q: What is the best riser height for co-witnessing?
A: Typically, a 0.5” riser paired with a low mount will achieve absolute co-witness. For lower 1/3 co-witness, use risers closer to 1”.
Q: Can I use these risers with a magnifier?
A: Yes. Several risers are compatible with magnifiers. Choose a cantilever or extended riser to maintain proper spacing.
Q: Are these risers quick-detach?
A: We carry both fixed and QD risers. QD models like the #63 Throw Lever are ideal for rapid optic swaps or field use.
Q: Will a riser improve long-range shooting?
A: If your scope is mounted too low for comfort or obstructed by your gear, a riser can enhance ergonomics and improve precision—especially with MOA-angled risers.
