Too bulky.
Written on Jun 18, 2026
With two throw levers this mount starts to get really bulky fast. I returned this and am searching for a much more compact ACOG mount still. There's no reason to have quick releases for my application as I don't intend to put back up sights on the rifle with this optic (keltec RFB).
Adds almost an inch of bulk to the side of the optic/rifle. I was hoping the titanium version was more compact, but its just as wide, though not as thick as the standard levers.

Excellent, but tall

Area 419 CZ457 Improved Scope Rail
This rail is, by design, a little tall. Forget the rest, area 419 makes great stuff.
If you plan to mount larger scopes with larger bodies just pay attention to your ocular bell housing dimension. On the cz 457, as a larger guy I would prefer to have my scope mounted further forward. However, I also want my scope as low as possible. I ended up with this rail and very low rings and my objective bell clears the reciever/barrel just fine, but I cannot position the scope further forward again due to interference between the ocular bell and the rail.
I prefer this style of rail that clamps onto the 11mm dovetail, but I will be moving to a DIP slide on rail to get a better height on the rifle. Great product, just the wrong application for me.
Also, the bubble level is kinda... cute. Its pretty small and hard to see under the scope. I have pretty good eyesight, but in anything but the best lighting the little level is not useful. For style I would prefer not to have it.
