Overview

The KDG SIDELOK Micro T2 mount clamps an Aimpoint Micro-pattern optic directly to a Picatinny rail at a 1.57-inch optical centerline. That places standard AR iron sights in the lower third of the window while preserving a familiar cheek weld. KDG lists compatibility across Aimpoint T-1, T-2, H-1, H-2 and CompM5 models, plus common Holosun 403, 503, 515 and 530 models, SIG ROMEO4 and ROMEO5 models, and other optics that use the same footprint.

SIDELOK replaces a protruding throw lever or tension knob with a push-button camming mechanism and a secondary safety. KDG states that the mount maintains zero when reinstalled in the same rail position. The mount measures 2.78 inches long and 1.10 inches wide, wears a black anodized finish, and uses the primarily 6061-aluminum construction KDG specifies for the SIDELOK family.

Choose SID5-120 for a 1.57-inch lower-third centerline. SID5-121 is the separate 1.42-inch absolute-co-witness model.

Key Features

  • 1.57-inch optical centerline for lower-third co-witness
  • Aimpoint Micro footprint with broad T-1, T-2 and compatible-dot coverage
  • Tool-less push-button SIDELOK attachment
  • Secondary safety resists unintended release
  • 2.78-inch length and 1.10-inch width
  • Black anodized finish
  • Made in the USA with KDG's lifetime mount warranty

Pros

  • +Push-button QD removes the protruding throw lever used by conventional mounts
  • +Published 1.57-inch centerline makes lower-third planning exact
  • +Broad Aimpoint Micro-pattern optic compatibility

Cons

  • Only one height is included; absolute co-witness requires the separate SID5-121
  • Costs more than fixed Micro-footprint mounts
