Geissele Automatics Aimpoint Micro 1.93'' High Optic Mount Ddc
The Geissele Automatics Aimpoint Micro 1.93" high optic mount in DDC is a precision-engineered solution for shooters running compact red dot sights on AR-platform rifles and tactical carbines. Built from a single piece of 7075-T6 aluminum and finished in Geissele's proprietary Desert Dirt Color (DDC) type 3 hard coat anodize, this mount delivers the rugged durability and low-profile sight line that modern tactical and hunting builds demand. If you're mounting an Aimpoint Micro or similarly sized T1-footprint optic and want a rock-solid foundation that won't shift zero, this is the kind of mount that earns its place in a rifle you depend on.
The 1.93" height positions your optic at a true co-witness plane with your rifle's iron sights, meaning you can transition between them or use both in the same sight picture depending on your needs and shooting distance. That's a practical advantage on a duty gun, a hunting rifle, or a defensive setup where speed and flexibility matter. The mount itself is uncompromising: it clamps down with 1,400 pounds of clamping force using Geissele's refined nut-and-bolt attachment system, and three shear lugs lock the whole assembly in place to resist torque and vibration. Once zeroed, it stays zeroed through hard use.
Geissele's reputation in the AR community is built on precision manufacturing and attention to detail, and this mount reflects that. The DDC color blends naturally with modern rifle furniture and tactical gear without standing out. Whether you're building a rifle for long days in the field, running drills at the range, or setting up a duty gun, this mount gives you the mechanical advantage and aesthetic coherence that come from matching quality components.
