Strike Industries Ambushom45 Ambush 45-Degree Optic Mount Black Anodized

The Strike Industries Ambush 45-Degree Optic Mount gives you a true 45-degree angle for co-witnessing your primary optic with backup iron sights or running a secondary red dot alongside your magnified scope. This Picatinny rail mount is built from lightweight, high-strength SUS630 hardened stainless steel paired with a 6061-T6 aluminum mounting plate—the kind of material combo that handles recoil without adding unnecessary weight to your upper receiver. The black anodized finish blends cleanly with modern AR builds and protects against corrosion in the field.

If you're running an Aimpoint Micro, C-MORE, DeltaPoint Pro, Docter/Noblex, RMR, Shield, or any SIG SAUER Open Reflex sight, this mount will accept it. The 1913 Picatinny interface means rock-solid compatibility with virtually any modern rifle platform. Whether you're setting up a duty rifle, a competition gun, or a hunting rig, a 45-degree mount lets you keep your sight picture fast while freeing up real estate on your upper rail for lights, lasers, or magnification.

Installation is straightforward if you've got experience with small parts and fasteners—just follow the torque spec and don't exceed 15 in/lbs on the Picatinny mount screw. Use the hardware included in the package with care to avoid marring your optic's finish. If you're not confident handling precision work yourself, a certified gunsmith will have this dialed in properly in minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What red dot sights are compatible with this 45-degree mount?

The Ambush mount accepts Aimpoint Micro, C-MORE, DeltaPoint Pro, Docter/Noblex, RMR Standard, Shield Standard, and all SIG SAUER Open Reflex sights. If you have a different optic in mind, verify that it uses one of these footprints before ordering.

Can I use this mount on any AR-15 or modern rifle?

Yes. The mount uses a 1913 Picatinny rail interface, which is standard on virtually all modern AR platforms, many other rifles, and shotguns with Picatinny-equipped uppers or receivers.

What's included in the package?

The mount ships with mounting hardware. Take care when installing to avoid marring your optic's finish—if you're unsure, have a gunsmith handle installation and function-testing.

Why would I want a 45-degree mount instead of a top rail mount?

A 45-degree angle lets you co-witness backup iron sights with a primary optic, or run a secondary red dot without blocking your magnified scope's view. It's a versatile way to add redundancy or secondary aiming capability without losing real estate on your top rail.
