MOUNTING THE MICRO3X MAGNIFIER
Attaching the Magnifier to the Flip Mount
Note: The Micro3X Magnifier does not come mounted to
the flip mount. This allows the user to select the preferred
mounting height (see "Mount Height Options" section below).
The Micro3X Magnifier can be mounted to flip to the right or
left based on shooting preference. To attach, open the flip
mount and position on the base of the magnifier so it can
flip to the right or left based on preference. Insert mounting
screws through the components and tighten using the
included hex wrench. Tighten to 20 in/lbs.
Mount Height Options
With the included flip mount and riser plate, there are two
options for mounting the Micro3X Magnifier:
1. Absolute Co-Witness Height with Flip Mount
Positions the magnifier at 1.46 inches from the base
surface to the center of the optic. This puts the dot height
at a center (absolute) sight picture when co-witnessed with
standard AR-15 iron sights. For this height, do not install
the included riser plate.
2. Lower 1/3 Co-Witness Height with Flip Mount and Riser Plate
Positions the magnifier at 1.57 inches from the base surface
to the center of the optic. This puts the dot height at a lower
1/3 sight picture when co-witnessed with standard AR-15
iron sights. For this height, install the included riser plate
between the Micro3X Magnifier and the Flip Mount.
