Kinetic Development Group SID5-220 Sidelock Trijicon MRO Mount Black Aluminum Compatible w/ Trijicon MRO/Trijicon MRO Patrol/Burris RT-1X
The Kinetic Development Group SID5-220 Sidelock Trijicon MRO mount is a precision aluminum mount purpose-built for shooters running compact red-dot optics on rifle platforms. This direct-mount solution secures the Trijicon MRO, MRO Patrol, or Burris RT-1X to your upper receiver with a robust sidelock clamping design, providing a rock-solid zero and repeatable performance on the range or in the field. If you're building a lightweight duty rifle, patrol carbine, or hunting setup where a simple, effective optic mount matters, the SID5-220 delivers the kind of clean engineering that KDG is known for.
The sidelock mechanism—rather than traditional hex-cap fasteners—creates a low-profile, tool-free tightening system that stays put through recoil and rough handling. Constructed from hard-anodized black aluminum, the mount resists corrosion and blends seamlessly with modern tactical finishes. Whether you're setting up a dedicated 3-gun stage gun, an AR-15 for home defense, or a precision trainer, this mount gets out of the way and lets your optic do the work.
KDG has built a reputation for no-nonsense mounts and rings that do exactly what they promise. The SID5-220 follows that tradition—straightforward compatibility with three proven red-dot models, foolproof installation, and the kind of fit-and-finish that makes you confident in your zero.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this Trijicon MRO mount fit my Trijicon MRO Patrol?
Yes. The KDG SID5-220 is designed to accommodate both the Trijicon MRO and the Trijicon MRO Patrol, as well as the Burris RT-1X.
What does sidelock mean on this red-dot mount?
The sidelock clamping system uses a lever-style fastener on the side of the mount rather than traditional hex bolts. It allows you to tighten the optic securely by hand, without tools, and can be loosened or adjusted in the field if needed.

The SID5-220 is a direct-mount system designed for AR-platform rifles with a standard Picatinny rail on the upper receiver.
What's the finish and material?
The mount is constructed from hard-anodized black aluminum, which resists corrosion and provides a durable, professional appearance on modern rifles.
