Reviews & Ratings for OpticsPlanet Exclusive Kinetic Development Group SIDELOK Aimpoint Micro Mount Lower 1/3 Co-Witness — 22 reviews — Page 1

This is the best quick detach mount I have used for the Aimpoint T2.

The Kenetic Development Group is one of my favorite brands and one of my first choices for my optic. The lockup of the connection to the picatinny rail is rock solid once the lever is released. This will give you a true return to zero once you're dialed in. It's an incredible system.

The only downside is the construction. The mount is heavy compared to some newer offerings. The tiny spring mechanisms within could be a potential point of failure for high-speed guys who larp heavy. Otherwise, for range bros, it's a great way to swap items from any rifle or shotgun with M-lok with expediency.

The Kinetic Development Group Sdelok™ is exactly what I wanted out of a quick detach system. I am proud to own the RMR Sdelok mount as well. I will continue to support Kenetic Development and Optics planet and would like to thank everyone involved who helped make and deliver these absolute bombproof mounting solutions. Return to zero has never been easier, you can trust thr Kinetic Development Sidelok mounts and accessories 100% Flawless and time tested with many reviews concluding the same unequivocally conclusion.

This mount works great. holds zero even when you take it off and put back on. the only thing was it did not have the holes like the picture, but i think this makes it more durable.

I purchased this mount for my Aimpoint Micro T2 Red Dot. This mount is solidly constructed and secure on my AR-15 and I have no complaints or concerns at all.

On a side note, I too was wondering, (as some have expressed in their reviews,) why the photo on the website and the product do not exactly match. My mount did not have the three open holes in it like the photo shows. I contacted Optics Planet and was told that the photo on the website is supplied by the manufacture and shows an older version of the product, so apparently there had been a slight design change in the mount. This is purely cosmetic and has no bearing on the function of the mount.

I do enjoy this , it’s my second purchase on this item and like the quick attach and detach. The install does come with what appears to be a hex tool that has been cut and having to use this in certain areas can be a real pain

Thought I was buying a strong and beautiful mount. Yeah, I do care. Product pictured is NOT product received. I didn’t even try to mount it. There are NO holes. Only minor circular engravings. Therefore, the decision to return it along with the Holosun red dot I purchased as a bundle deal is already made. If the product received doesn’t look like the picture that I naturally assumed was of the product on which I came to spend money, then I’m just not interested. It’s principle. Unhappy.

I bought this mount because it was in stock during these crazy buy it just in case days. I really wasn’t planning on a QD mount for a new Aimpoint T2 as it was going to be zeroed and left alone. After mounting and attaching to rail, I realized I wasn’t 100% sure what slot I wanted. It is so solid and easy to move. I’ll never trust a lever again. Makes removing sight to clean the gun super easy.

The company website, as well as the photos on OP show holes, mine did not have holes drilled all the way through, ultimately this doesn't effect the performance, but it speaks to quality control. The packaging also claims the screws come with thread locker on them, they did not. Again not a hard fix. Finally, this is my biggest complaint by far, is the way the locking mechanism operates. No matter how hard I tried, I wasn't able to get the mount to lock to my upper receiver, but it did lock as expected to the rail on the handguard. Hard to say if that's a problem with the mount or my upper. I probably need to test it on some other pic rails. Overall I think it'll get the job done for now, I can make it work, but I probably wouldn't suggest this to another buyer. I honestly expected far better quality for the price they ask. I probably would have been just as well off paying 2/3 the price for something less complicated off eBay.

This mounting system was pretty easy to assemble with my Holosun Paralow optic and even easier to latch onto my rails, firm placement. Not the most aesthetically pleasing but it def gets the job done in a quick and intuitive way.
