Badger Ordnance Condition One Red Dot Mount (Aimpoint Micro)

Badger Ordnance builds precision rifle hardware, and the Condition One red dot mount reflects that lineage. The body is 7075-T6 with an integral recoil lug that indexes into the rail slot, and the clampfoot is steel rather than aluminum, so repeated torque cycles do not deform the clamping surface. The result is a fixed mount that returns to the same place every time it is torqued down.

Three heights are sold as separate SKUs: 1.43 inch for an absolute co-witness with standard AR irons, 1.70 inch for a lower 1/3 sight picture, and 1.93 inch for a heads-up stance behind a plate carrier. Passive aiming under night vision wants the 2.26 inch tier, which Badger does not offer in this line. Badger runs a parallel line for the Aimpoint ACRO footprint, so an enclosed-emitter dot gets the same mount family.

It sits just under the Geissele in price and does the same job. The choice between them is mostly finish preference and which height you actually need in stock.
