Built from durable 6061-T6 Aluminum alloy construction with MIL-SPEC hard coat anodization for extra longevity, these new sizes meet the demands of requirements commonly associated with the hard life scopes tend to live riding atop sporting and hunting rifles. To protect the finish and function from abuse passed along by the great outdoors, the steel hardware is coated in black zink phosphate to improve corrosion and abrasion resistance.

For tightening down, the GLx mounts allow high torque: 25in-lbs for the T15 Torx cap screws and 65in-lbs for the 1/2” crossbolt hex nuts. That’s some serious torque to hold even the largest optics firm against rifle recoil. The cantilevered design pushes the mounted optics forward over 2″ to ensure optimal eye relief while still offering an aligned view of the reticle.

According to PrimaryArms.com, this GLx mount has been optimized for use on the AR platform, offering an excellent scope mounting option to a huge market.
