Description
The Reptilia RMU Mount is a slim-line 1913 Picatinny riser developed at the request of a DoD customer. It raises an optic .625 inches, which moves fixed-height, lower-1/3 co-witness optics to a height that works with helmet-borne night vision or a more upright shooting posture. Reptilia specifically calls out compatibility with the EOTech holographic line, the Vortex AMG UH-1, and the Sig ROMEO8T as intended use cases, though any optic with a standard 1913 Picatinny footprint can be verified against the slot count you select.
The mount is machined from billet 7075-T6 aluminum and finished in Milspec Type III hard anodize. Available in 6, 9, or 12 slot lengths to suit the footprint of the optic and the rail space available on your platform.

What problem does the slot count choice solve?
Shorter slot counts save rail space and reduce overall weight. Longer counts give more clamping surface and can better distribute load under recoil with heavier optics. Match the slot count to your optic's base length and available rail real estate.
Is this a co-witness riser or does it eliminate co-witness?
The .625" lift is designed to move optics that are already at lower-1/3 co-witness to an ergonomically higher position for NVG use. Whether iron sights remain in the optic's field of view after mounting will depend on the specific optic and sight combination. Verify before fielding.
