Aim Sports MT012H 1-Inch High, 5-Inch Long Riser Mount – Precision Optics Elevation for Tactical and Hunting Applications

The Aim Sports MT012H is a 1-inch high riser mount built to elevate your optics for clearer sight lines over large objective lenses, rail-mounted accessories, or suppressor housings. Whether you're setting up a tactical rifle, a hunting platform, or a competition gun, this mount adds the height you need without sacrificing the precision zero of your scope. At 5 inches long, it distributes load across enough Picatinny real estate to keep everything stable where it counts.

Riser mounts solve a real problem: standard direct-to-rail mounting can force your head into an awkward cheek weld, or worse, clear obstructions completely. The MT012H gives you that critical extra inch of elevation while staying compact enough to balance handling and sight radius. It's black anodized for corrosion resistance in field conditions, and the solid construction means your zero won't wander between range sessions and hunts.

This is the kind of mount you grab when you've built something non-standard—a suppressed rifle, an optic with a huge bell diameter, or a gun already running backup irons or lights underneath. Fits any Picatinny rail system, so it works across AR platforms, bolt rifles with modern rails, and tactical shotguns.

Key Features

• 1-inch elevation for improved sight picture and clearance
• 5-inch length for stability across the rail
• Black anodized finish for weather and corrosion protection
• Picatinny rail compatible
• Solid, repeatable zero platform

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this riser mount work on my AR-15?

Yes. The MT012H is compatible with any Picatinny rail system, which includes standard AR uppers, free-floating rails, and most modular rail platforms.

What's the difference between a 1-inch riser and a lower-profile mount?

A 1-inch riser lifts your optic higher above the rail to clear large objective lenses, suppressor baffles, or other mounted accessories. It also improves your natural cheek weld on rifles with tall or heavily accessorized builds. If your rail is clear and you prefer a lower sight height, a direct mount may suit you better.

Can I use this with a suppressor on my rifle?

Yes. One of the main uses for a riser mount is to give your scope clearance over a mounted suppressor, so it works well in that setup.

How does the 5-inch length affect recoil stability?

The longer footprint distributes recoil force across more of the rail, which helps lock the mount firmly in place. This translates to a more stable zero over time compared to a shorter riser.
