The American Defense AD-RECON-SL 34mm Scope Mount is ADM’s super-low ("SL") one-piece QD scope mount — the lowest mount ADM offers — here with 34mm rings at a 1.230in optical centreline. It is a straight mount with no cantilever offset, and ADM’s QD Auto Lock lever system delivers fast install/removal with repeatable return-to-zero on Picatinny rails.
Machined from 6061-T6 aluminium with a Type III Mil-Spec hardcoat anodised finish at around 8 oz, it is built for hard-use duty and competition. Made in the USA.
Option: 34mm Super Low — also available in 30mm.
How It Compares
Need forward offset for eye relief? See the cantilever AD-RECON (34mm options in Medium and TAC levers), the extended AD-RECON-X, or the lightweight AD-DELTA-C. Browse all rifle scope mounts and build via AR-15 optics.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does "SL" mean?
Super Low — the lowest optical centreline in ADM’s scope mount line, with no cantilever offset.
Will it clear my objective lens?
ADM notes the low ring position is not compatible with scopes with an objective lens larger than 56mm.
Does it return to zero?
Yes — the QD Auto Lock levers give repeatable return-to-zero on reinstall.
