TRUGLO 1/2" Picatinny-Style Riser Mount for AR-15 Flat-Top, Matte Black

The TRUGLO 1/2" Picatinny-style riser mount for AR-15 flat-top receivers gives you quick elevation adjustment without gunsmithing. Built from solid CNC-machined aluminum, this riser raises your optic's mounting surface a half-inch to achieve proper eye relief and sight picture alignment—critical when you're running a scope, red dot, or other sight on an AR platform. It bolts directly to your existing Picatinny rail with no permanent modifications, making it one of the simplest upgrades you can make to dial in your setup.

Whether you're building a hunting rifle, setting up for precision shooting, or running a duty-ready AR, the right sight height matters. Too low and you'll be craning your neck; too high and you lose the cheek weld. This riser gets your optic to the Goldilocks zone where your eye naturally finds the sight picture. The matte black finish resists glare and complements most AR builds without drawing attention.

Installation is straightforward—no drilling, no permanent drilling, and no special tools required. Just clamp it down to your flat-top rail and you're ready to mount your optic. At approximately 4 inches long, it spans enough rail estate to secure solidly without excessive overhang.
