Perfect when you want a lower profile mount for your build - Arisaka Defense Low Profile M-LOK Picatinny Rails

I used this when building my AR using a standard (Aero Precision) upper and a low profile free float tube (in this case the Faxon carbon fiber MLOK tube). The height was perfect to mount my front sight (Magpul MBUS Pro) so that I could absolute co-witness with my red dot. I was so pleased with it that also started using it in all my builds where I want to reduce weight (but don't want to use a polymer rail), and/or reduce bulk, like mounting a light or light switch tape. While a more expensive than a standard Picatinny rail from other companies, especially when compared to the polymer mount, none offers the same height advantage that this Arisaka mount does. I would absolutely recommend this for anyone that wants to save on weight or height, and that prefers aluminum, over polymer.
