Overview

The KDG SIDELOK ACRO mount converts an ACRO-pattern enclosed red dot into a direct Picatinny-mounted rifle optic. KDG sets this model at absolute co-witness height and publishes a 0.4-inch mount height from the top of the rail. That 0.4-inch figure describes the mount body, not the complete optic centerline.

The same push-button camming system used across the SIDELOK family removes the mount without a wrench or exposed throw lever, and a secondary safety guards against unintended release. KDG lists the Aimpoint ACRO C-1, C-2, P-1 and P-2, Steiner MPS, Burris FastFire E, Lead & Steel Pandora PB-3, and Gideon Mediator II as compatible. The mount weighs 2.7 ounces, measures 2.825 inches long, and has a black anodized finish.
