SKD Aimpoint QRP2 Riser (PRO/COMP M4)

Introducing the NEW SKD AIMPOINT QRP2 RISER for the Aimpoint PRO and Comp M4!

The Aimpoint PRO and Comp M4 optics ship with a perfectly usable mounting system that often gets tossed in the random parts bin to upgrade to a taller aftermarket mount. With new mounts often costing in excess of $150, accessorizing your Aimpoint optic can strain your wallet. With the NEW SKD AIMPOINT QRP2 RISER, you can upgrade your existing factory QRP2 mount to a modern height option for merely $40! Or when purchasing an Aimpoint PRO from us, you can add an SKD AIMPOINT QRP2 RISER for only $20 more!

Four riser heights are offered for the most popular applications.

  • The 1.73" Riser will place the center of the optic at 1.73", which is the classic Bottom 1/3 Co-Witness position, allowing for fixed iron sights to be constantly visible for immediate use when needed, while keeping the iron sight picture at the bottom 1/3 of your Field of View so you have an uncluttered red dot view.
  • The 1.93" Riser will offer you a largely unimpeded FOV when using over your PEQ-15 and matches the height of the LaRue 1.93" Mounts. Even for those not using the IR aiming devices, the 1.93" Riser will allow for an upright head position for quickly finding your dot and reducing neck fatigue, while not being too high to shoot from the prone.
  • The 2.04" Riser will allow you to keep the exact same optic mounting height for shooters using a 2.04" Geissele mount for their Low Power Variable Optics, and also allows for in-line mounting of a CNVD that is secured to 1/2" Riser.
  • The 2.26" Riser provides an affordable entry-level solution to use your Aimpoint with the new Unity FAST Flip to Center Magnifier hotness, while staying within a budget. We view this Riser on a PRO or Comp M4 as the gateway mount to eventually using an Aimpoint Micro Optic coupled with the Unity FAST Mount.

The SKD Aimpoint QRP2 Riser is also Bidirectional. Many shooters dislike the left-side orientation of the large torque knob on the QRP2 and Comp M4 mounts because it can sometimes impede AR15/M4 bolt-catch manipulation and can get hung on gear for most right-handed shooters. With the SKD Aimpoint QRP2 Riser, you can now mount the QRP2 Riser base in the opposite direction by design, with the knob on the right-side of the receiver, keeping the left side of the receiver clear and open for bolt-catch manipulations. When the torque knob is mounted above or near the ejection port, it will not get in the way of your ejection pattern, but it will collect fouling easily so we recommend masking the knob with painters tape for extended training sessions.

FAQ

Q: Why is there a visible gap between the riser and the QRP2 base and the optic?  

A: The critical mounting surfaces for this product are on the angles that mate up between the riser/mount/optic, and not the flats.  This ensures that the mount remains as straight and solid as possible after an impact.  If the horizontal flats between each piece were the main contact surface, one could introduce rotational movement between the pieces.  Our riser was designed by the 100lb brains at Arisaka Defense using dimensions from the QRP2 mount.  If you look at the factory QRP2 to optic interface, the same “gap” is visible.

    SKD Aimpoint QRP2 Riser

    Quality build, red loctite provided and they even sent a free bad ass sticker. Passive aiming w/ nvgs has never been easier. Will recommend.

    QRP riser with Aimpoint PRO

    Posted by QRP riser for IWI X95 on 21st Jan 2024

    Looking for the right height to lower 1/3 cowitness the irons on my IWI X95. Previous optics made me mash my face into the gun. I couldn’t find anything online to help me out with optic height to comfortably shoot the X95 and still cowitness the sights (I know, I’m the Fudd who still insists on being able to cowitness irons through the optic). I took a shot with the SKD 1.93” riser paired with the Aimpoint PRO with Midwest Industries QD mount. The combo worked out perfectly! I am able to shoot with a more “heads up” position and yes, the taller iron sights are visible through the optic with the 1.93” riser. This puts the optics very high over the bore, but I can live with that because I can now comfortably shoot the rifle. I love the SKD risers. I have several in 1.73” for my ARs which put the M4s and PRO as high as possible and still be able to cowitness my sights through the glass. All in all I will buy these risers any time I mount anything with the QRP 2 or similar mount.

    Great way to run AP Pro with Unity magnifier without breaking the bank

    Posted by Bill S on 7th Dec 2023

    I got the 2.26" one specifically to run my AP Pro with the Unity magnifier. The combo works great and it doesn't break the bank.

    Aimpoint Pro QRP Riser 2.26

    Posted by Luke Buran on 25th May 2023

    This is an excellent product! If you are looking to raise your height without having to go for a pricey option, definitely snag one of these. Get to keep your base, just ads some lift, for different witness options. I used the 2.26 so I could run it with any unity magnifier setups I have, and it works great. I am running it on my wife’s Romeo 7, on the low mount (not the QD), and it fits and lifts it great, can easily slap my magnifiers on her rig when needed.

    Just What Was Needed

    Posted by Kolby on 22nd May 2023

    There's not a lot of options for a 2.26" riser for a Comp M4s and I didn't want a forward riser for my purpose. This checks all the boxes I needed, plus at a great value and quality. Very satisfied. Thanks SKD!
