FAST™ is a series of mounts and platforms that provide end users with a quicker sight picture than standard height mounts. A taller optical centerline (mechanical) height provides faster/easier reticle acquisition while wearing electronic ear pro/communication headsets, night vision goggles, gas masks, and plate carriers that can impede a natural shooting position. It allows for more rapid visual processing of the battlefield by promoting a heads-up posture. The FAST™ LPVO Offset Optic Base attaches to either the forward or rearward mounting holes in the FAST™ LPVO Scope Mount. Together with a FAST™ LPVO Offset Optic Adapter Plate, it provides a base for attaching any number of mini red dot sights directly to the scope mount. The Offset Optic Base places mini red dot sights at a 35 degree offset from the scope tube for faster transitions. When used with the Optic Adapter Plates, the mini red dot will have a mechanical centerline of 2.05” above the rail.
