Most risers on the market require Allen/hex keys to fit making them a semi-permanent fixture on a rifle or carbine. The alternative, a quick-detach riser, would normally entail an ugly lever system that might well catch on foliage or equipment and could snag the shooter’s knuckles painfully when working a side-mounted charging handle. KDG set about solving this problem and came up with a front mounted plunger arrangement SIDELOK riser that requires positive pressure on a recessed inner button to unlock before it is depressed making it almost impossible for the release to be actuated accidentally. The three separate locks hold the SIDELOK Picatinny Riser in place firmly ensuring repeat zero even on some poorly dimensioned rails. The riser can be removed in seconds, even when wearing gloves and presents a very slim unobstructed profile with nothing protruding from the side.
