The American Defense AD-RECON-SL 30mm QD Scope Mount, Super Low is an American Defense Mfg. one-piece quick-detach scope mount, with 30 mm rings, no forward offset and a 1.152in / 29.3 mm centerline, weighing about 8 oz. Cant is 0 MOA and it clamps with ADM's patented Auto Lock quick-detach lever, which self-adjusts to in-spec and out-of-spec Picatinny rails without tools and returns to zero when refitted.
How It Compares
Super Low is the point of the SL: with no cantilever offset and a 29.3 mm centerline it sets the scope as close to the bore as the objective will allow, which suits a bolt-action with a low comb far more than a cantilever does. The AD-RECON-SL in 34mm is the same mount for the other tube size. Where the action needs the scope set further back, the cantilever AD-RECON cantilever mount or the 3in-offset AD-RECON-X extended cantilever mount are the right answer. Browse all rifle scope mounts.

The optical centerline sits 1.152in / 29.3 mm above the top of the Picatinny rail, which is the lowest height American Defense offers in this pattern.
