The Ultimate Guide to Offset Optics: Adjustable Mounts

Are you looking to make your shooting setup better and faster? You might want to check out an offset mount.  Whether you're a competitive shooter, law enforcement officer, or recreational enthusiast, adding adjustable offset mounts to your rifle provides faster transitions, greater accuracy, and extra flexibility.  In this guide, we’ll explain what they are, why you need one, and how Athena Precision’s adjustable mounts can help.

 

Understanding Different Types of Offset Mounts

An offset mount lets you attach an extra optic (like a red dot) at a 45-degree angle on your rifle. This makes it easier to switch between your main scope and the offset optic without moving anything around. It’s a huge time-saver when you need to aim at targets quickly.


There are two types of offset mounts:

  1. Fixed Offset Mount: Holds your optic at a set 45-degree angle.
  2. Adjustable Offset Mount: Allows you to change the angle to fit your shooting style.

If you want more flexibility, an adjustable angle offset mount is the way to go.

Using offset optics can make your shooting experience smoother and more efficient. Here’s why:

  • Quick Transitions: You can switch between long-range and close-range targets with a simple tilt of your rifle. No need to mess with your scope settings.
  • More Versatility: An angled offset mount gives you the ability to take on different shooting scenarios, whether you’re aiming far away or up close.
  • Custom Fit: With an adjustable offset mount, you can set the angle exactly how you like it, making it easier and more comfortable to shoot.
