The American Defense AD-RECON is a rugged quick-detach cantilever scope mount for rifles needing a forward optic position — this version in 34mm rings at standard height with TAC levers: ADM's slimmer, snag-resistant lever profile for tight handguards and duty use. The cantilever offset sets correct eye relief on Picatinny rails with a secure lockup and repeatable return-to-zero.
Machined from 6061-T6 aluminium with a Type III hardcoat anodised finish, it's strong yet lightweight, and made in the USA.
Option: 34mm Standard, TAC Levers — also available with standard levers in 30mm Standard, 30mm Medium, 30mm High, 1 Inch and 34mm Medium, or 30mm TAC.
