The Reptilia AUS Mount is a one-piece riflescope mount for 34mm tube scopes, holding the optic at a 43.2mm (1.70in) bore height on any M1913 Picatinny rail.
One tube diameter, one bore height, one machined body. There is nothing here to shim, stack or align — that work was done on the mill.
Reptilia describes the AUS Mount as the culmination of a two-year development program driven by an end user group. It is machined from billet 7075-T6 aluminum, finished in MIL-STD Type III hardcoat anodizing, and clamps to the rail through an anti-snag spring-loaded nitrided steel clamp. This version weighs 5.8 oz (165 g) and takes a 34mm scope tube.
This is the combination most modern precision rifles end up wanting: a 34mm tube for the elevation travel, and a bore height that lets a large objective clear the rail while bringing the eyepiece up to a raised comb. Reptilia publishes 43.2mm as the metric height and states that an objective up to 86mm will clear a flat-top rail. Made in the USA.
Key Features
- 34mm tube, fixed: Machined for one ring diameter, so the scope beds on metal rather than on shims
- 43.2mm (1.70in) bore height: Chosen at the mill, not adjusted on the rifle
- One-piece body: Rings and base are the same part, so there is no base-to-ring joint to move
- 5.8 oz (165 g): Billet 7075-T6 aluminum in MIL-STD Type III hardcoat anodizing
- Spring-loaded steel clamp: Stays open while you place the mount, then closes flush and anti-snag
Compatibility & Fitment
Fits riflescopes with a 34mm main tube, on any M1913 Picatinny rail — the flat-top receiver of a bolt-action precision rifle, a rail-topped action, or a flat-top AR-pattern upper. Reptilia states that an objective up to 86mm will clear a flat-top Picatinny rail at this height. Tube diameter and bore height are both fixed on this listing and neither is adjustable, so measure your scope's main tube and decide your height before ordering. Reptilia makes the same 34mm mount at 1.54in and 1.93in bore heights, and the same 1.70in height for a 30mm tube.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the mm figure a height or a tube size?
On an AUS Mount it is the scope tube diameter. This one takes a 34mm tube. Reptilia quotes bore height separately, and on this version it is 43.2mm (1.70in). That is the opposite of their ROF and DOT red dot mounts, where the height is the headline figure, so it is worth reading the two numbers carefully before ordering.
Will my scope fit?
Only if its main tube measures 34mm. A one-piece mount is machined to one diameter and cannot be shimmed down or opened out. Check the tube specification from the scope maker rather than measuring with a ruler, because 30mm, 34mm and 35mm are close enough to confuse by eye. Objective bells up to 86mm clear the rail at this height, which is 9mm more than the 1.54in version allows.
Which bore height should I choose?
Bore height sets how high your eye has to sit to see through the scope. A lower mount suits a rifle with a conventional stock and a low comb; a taller one suits a raised comb, a chassis with an adjustable cheek piece, or a shooter who wants a head-up position. Reptilia offers this mount at more than one height and they are separate products, because a one-piece mount cannot be adjusted after it is made.
Does it hold zero if I take it off?
The clamp indexes into the rail slots, so return to zero is repeatable when the mount goes back into the same slots on the same rail. Note which slot you were in before removing it, and confirm the zero on paper afterward rather than assuming it — that is ordinary practice with any Picatinny mount, not a caveat about this one.
