Midwest Industries Mp5/Mp5K Tall T2 Optic Mount
$104.95
The Midwest Industries MP5/MP5K Tall T2 Optic Mount is a precision-engineered solution for shooters running HK MP5 or MP5K variants—including the Century Arms AP5/K, Zenith ZF-5/K, and Military Arms Corporation MAC-5/K—who want to mount a modern red dot without a gunsmith visit. This compact aluminum mount positions your optic in a raised configuration that keeps your sight picture upright and natural, promoting better control and faster target acquisition. Whether you're running drills at the range, setting up a home-defense rifle, or tuning a clone-built platform, this T2-interface mount delivers the kind of rock-solid performance you'd expect from a domestically made AR accessory.
The mount is machined from hard-coat anodized 6061 aluminum and features a patent-pending design that's as tough as it is reliable. Installation takes minutes—no gunsmith required, and all tools come in the box. The design supports both T2 Micro red dots (like the Aimpoint Micro T-2) and Acro-footprint optics, giving you flexibility in your sight choice. A pass-through channel preserves your iron sights as a backup, and the whole unit tips the scale at just 3.3 ounces, so you're not adding weight where it matters least.
Midwest Industries built this mount with 922R compliance in mind, so it's legal for use on federally regulated platforms. Note that the mount is optimized for 9mm receivers; fitment on .40 cal or 10mm MP5 receivers may vary, and it won't work with .22LR variants. This is American-made kit backed by a lifetime warranty—the kind of no-nonsense optic solution that works when it counts.
