YHM Picatinny Riser – The Smart Way to Elevate Your Setup
The Yankee Hill Machine Picatinny Riser is the cleanest solution for getting your optic or accessory at the right height. Whether you’re running a red dot and magnifier combo, clearing gas mask height, or setting up for night vision behind a helmet, this riser delivers the elevation and durability you need — without the excess bulk.
Built for 1913 Picatinny rails, this riser locks down with authority and stays put, ensuring your zero holds through recoil and field use. Precision-machined from aircraft-grade aluminum, it adds barely any weight while giving you just enough lift to improve your line of sight. It’s compact, tough, and designed for shooters who don’t compromise on build quality.
