Vector Optics Red Dot Sight Riser Mount SCRA-67 – Co-Witness Cantilever Mount for AR Platforms
The Vector Optics Red Dot Sight Riser Mount SCRA-67 is a compact and lightweight mounting solution engineered for AR-15 and similar flat-top platforms. Its primary function is to raise the optical height of red dot sights, enabling both absolute and lower 1/3 co-witness with standard iron sights. Crafted from high-grade 6061-T6 aluminum alloy and finished with a durable matte black anodization, this riser mount ensures strength, precision, and resistance to recoil while keeping weight to a minimum.
With its slightly cantilevered design, the SCRA-67 extends the optic forward for improved eye relief and a more comfortable shooting position. This makes it a perfect fit for modern sporting rifles, tactical carbines, and competitive shooting setups. Precision CNC machining guarantees tight tolerances and a rock-solid interface with both the firearm and optic, ensuring consistent accuracy and reliable performance in any environment.

Durability & Build Quality
Constructed from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the SCRA-67 riser mount delivers an exceptional balance of strength and lightness. This alloy is widely used in aerospace and defense applications due to its resistance to stress and deformation. The black matte anodized finish not only adds durability and corrosion protection but also provides a non-reflective surface ideal for tactical environments. Its robust construction ensures that mounted optics remain secure under recoil and field conditions, making it a dependable accessory for demanding shooters.
Practical Applications
Tactical and Professional Use
Law enforcement and military users benefit from the riser’s ability to provide co-witness alignment with iron sights, ensuring redundancy in case of optic failure. Its cantilever design also gives greater flexibility for positioning red dots in mission-specific configurations.
Sport Shooting
Competitive shooters using AR-style rifles will appreciate the riser’s ergonomic improvement. By elevating and slightly extending the optic, it allows for faster target acquisition and reduced head movement between targets in fast-paced shooting competitions.
Hunting Applications
For hunters who prefer red dots for short-range precision, the riser ensures an optimal cheek weld and a natural line of sight. Its lightweight construction avoids unnecessary bulk while still delivering the ruggedness required for field use.
