Warne MSR Extended Quick Detach Skeletonized 1" Mount - Dark Earth Finish
Warne Scope Mounts
The Warne MSR Extended Quick Detach Skeletonized 34mm mount in Dark Earth finish is a purpose-built optics mount for AR-15 and MSR platforms that prioritizes speed, weight savings, and return-to-zero reliability. Built from 6061 T6 aluminum with steel threaded inserts at all connection points, this mount combines the rigid steel-on-steel contact you need for holds zero with the weight reduction modern shooters want. It's designed and made in the USA—the kind of gear that earns trust through consistent performance, not marketing hype.
What sets this mount apart is its quick-detach system and extended cantilever design. The patent-pending dual quick-detach levers let you swap your optic on and off the gun without losing zero, which matters whether you're running a primary rifle optic, setting up for different shooting scenarios, or maintaining multiple guns. The extended design provides over 2 inches of forward cantilever, giving you proper eye relief with modern scopes and keeping the sight picture far enough forward for natural cheek weld. Warne's ideal height engineering positions your optic at the right plane for AR-platform ergonomics—no awkward head gymnastics to get a good sight picture.
The skeletonized construction cuts weight without gutting strength. The aluminum body and caps shed unnecessary material, while the Torx fasteners and steel inserts mean you won't strip threads or deal with loose components after hard use. This is the kind of thoughtful design that reads as "built by people who actually shoot" rather than "optimized for spreadsheets." If you're running a flat-top AR and want a solid optics platform that gets out of the way, this mount delivers.

Yes. This mount is designed specifically for flat-top AR-platform and MSR-style rifles. The ideal height geometry places your optic at the correct plane for these platforms, ensuring proper cheek weld and sight picture alignment.
Yes. The dual quick-detach levers allow you to remove and reinstall your optic while maintaining return-to-zero, thanks to Warne's engineering. This is ideal if you rotate optics between rifles or need to swap between different sight systems.
This is a 34mm tube diameter mount, so it accommodates optics with 34mm main tubes. Forward cantilever of over 2 inches provides proper eye relief for modern scopes.
The skeletonized aluminum body and caps reduce weight without sacrificing strength or reliability. The steel threaded inserts ensure you still get steel-on-steel contact where it matters most—at all threaded interfaces—so you're not cutting corners on durability or zero stability.
