American Defense 34Mm 0 Moa 2'' Cantilever Mount Black

The American Defense 34mm 0 MOA 2" cantilever mount is a precision scope mount designed for AR-15 flattop platforms. Built on the RECON platform, this mount solves a common problem for shooters: getting your optic positioned where your eye actually wants to be. The cantilever design extends your scope forward from the receiver, which means you can achieve proper eye relief without awkward head positioning or the need for a riser. Whether you're running a precision rifle, a hunting AR, or a duty-style build, the geometry of a cantilever lets your optic sit where it's meant to.

American Defense Manufacturing machined this mount from 6061-T6 aluminum and finished it with hard-coat MIL-Spec Type III anodize—the kind of armor that handles repeated cleaning cycles, sling snaps, and range bag abuse without losing its edges. The 0 MOA configuration keeps your mount in neutral cant and works with your scope's internal adjustments for elevation and windage, so your zero follows your turrets. The 2" cantilever overhang is the sweet spot for most modern scope magnifications and objective sizes, giving you reach without making your gun front-heavy.

The mount features ADM's patented QD Auto Lock System, which is less marketing speak and more practical engineering: it locks your optic securely to both in-spec and out-of-spec Picatinny rail systems. If your receiver tolerances run tight or loose, the mount adapts. Throw a quality quick-detach scope ring on top and you've got a modular optic platform that holds zero when you need it and comes off when you don't.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this mount work on my AR-15?

This mount is designed for AR-15 flattop receivers with Picatinny rails. The QD Auto Lock System works with both in-spec and out-of-spec rail systems, so tolerance variations won't keep your optic from mounting securely.

What scope tube size does this mount accept?

This is a 34mm mount, so it's designed for 34mm scope tubes. Make sure your scope matches this diameter before ordering.

Do I need to buy scope rings separately?

Yes. This mount is the base; you'll need to add quick-detach scope rings in 34mm to mount your optic.

What does "0 MOA" mean for this mount?

0 MOA means the mount sits in neutral cant—no built-in angle. Your scope's internal elevation and windage turrets handle all the adjustment needed for your zero.
