Overview

The KDG SIDELOK 30mm mount applies the company's push-button quick-detach system to a one-piece riflescope base. Pressing the forward release opens the camming clamp without a wrench, throw lever, or external tension knob. KDG states that the clamp adapts across Picatinny rail tolerances and maintains zero when returned to the same rail position.

The 30mm ring modules can move forward or rearward along the base to clear an objective bell, turret cluster, or magnification collar. Their removable top and bottom halves are machined together and marked as pairs to preserve alignment. The mount measures 5.98 inches long and wears a black Type III hardcoat anodized finish.

Key Features

  • 30mm rings for LPVOs and conventional riflescopes
  • Tool-less push-button SIDELOK attachment
  • Secondary safety resists unintended release
  • Ring modules move fore and aft to clear optic controls
  • Removable ring modules simplify service and repositioning
  • Matched ring halves use witness marks to preserve pairing
  • Black Type III hardcoat anodized finish

Pros

  • +Adjustable ring position helps clear turrets and magnification collars
  • +Matched removable ring halves preserve their paired orientation
