UTG Med-pro Compact Riser Mount, 0.83" High, 3 Slots , Black

The UTG Med-pro Compact Picatinny Riser Mount is exactly what I needed. It provides the perfect height boost for my optics and fits securely on my rail. The build quality is excellent, with a sturdy construction that holds up under heavy use. Installation was quick and easy, and it has maintained a solid, wobble-free grip. Great value for such a reliable riser mount. Highly recommend for anyone looking to elevate their sight setup!

Installed quickly with a Bushnell TRS-25 on my Ruger AR-556 an it co-witnesses perfectly. It seems to be extremely sturdy and looks great as it's just the right length for that red-dot. I really like the small side paddle for tightening, too.

This riser works great, I use it with a Bushnell TRS25 red dot sight and it co-witnesses perfect on my AR15/A3 with MagPul MBUS and F marked FSB. I didn't want to spend more than the economical red dot I chose on the riser and opted for the UTG offerings. It is built great, finish is more than acceptable and the machining leaves nothing to complain about. Easy on and off, Does a decent job of returning the sight to zero. This is a great cheaper alternative riser option and I would recommend!

This Riser will work for now,however, I was seeking absolute co-witness. This gives me lower 1/3 cowitness with a Primary Arms micro dot with REMOVABLE base. What that means for a fixed base PA-micro, an aimpoint, trs-25, or anything else I don't know. If you're unsure about what lower 1/3 cowitness and absolute cowitness are, google it. I prefer absolute, see explanation below. This 100% gave me lower 1/3. Which is fine for now but I will be ordering the LOW riser to see if that works. The riser itself seems strong and everything fit as it should. Thumbscrew worked fine. I HAVEN'T shot with it yet. I will update this if anything goes wrong. But if everything stays put, it holds zero, and can go on and off and still hold zero, I will not do an update. You can assume that it is doing (did) those things for me. Hence the 5 stars. Like I said I will be trying the Low riser from UTG but might wait until my low pro gas block goes on and replaces my fixed front site. Short version: lower 1/3 requires you to raise your head slightly to center your dot in the field of view (FOV). This allows for a very open site picture as your rear iron site is not visible and the front site sits at the very bottom of the FOV. But, you sacrifice cheek weld. Absolute cowitness means your rear site, front site, and the red dot all line up in the middle of your FOV thru the red dot site. And you keep a proper cheek weld which I prefer. But your iron sites can clutter up your FOV. Folding sites do away with this issue so in my opinion absolute cowitness (lower riser/site) is better. But if you have a fixed front site you may think otherwise.

I like the UTG risers, I have a few versions, because they are quality aluminum, lock up tight and you can get the exact height you need. UTG has a solid warranty, which I have never had a need to use yet. It is good kit.

Recently purchased both the medium profile as well as the high profile risers for my AR not really knowing which would work best for my Bushnell TRS-25. When using the Bushnell TRS-25 optic in conjunction with the Magpul MBUS flip-up sights (both Gen1 and Gen2 models) the Medium Profile riser is a dead-on half co-witness sighting with the flip-up irons. The High Profile riser will provide a very functional bottom one-third co-witness usability with the MBUS sights. Fit and finish are great and both a great value. The mount is solid and engages the standard 1913 picatinny railing flawlessly. The one pitfall that I had found with this product is that when attempting to mount the riser onto the upper receiver of my AR was related to the movable jaw on the side of the mount under the lock-down screw. Because the locking knob is captive on the threaded shaft that links the movable an static sides of the jaw, it took some coaxing at the risk of marring the finish of the rail because the jaw did not open wide enough to just 'slip' onto the railing. While not a deal-breaker and can even serve as a bit of an insurance policy to hedge against outright losing the riser under duress it does bid mention. If you are sensitive to the finish of your railing around where you mount the riser take some extra time an patience to do it right.

OK...I don't write reviews, but this little riser solved all my problems and answered my questions. Long story short, I am a new AR15 shooter and so when I have an 'AHA!' moment, it is long sought after. This riser works perfectly with my flat top and BSHNLL TRS25. I first tried a Yankee hill 0.5" rise and it wasn't what I wanted for co-witness. I realized how well made it was and thus figured it to be one of the best. The UTG RS08S3 3 slot riser though is very well made and gave me the correct rise I was looking for. The spring base mounting is pretty slick and makes it easy to slip on. The machining is exceptional and the corners are as crisp as the YHM. I definitely do think this is one of the best values as it was only like 10 bucks, I am gonna order 2 more to use for a scope. You just can't go wrong with this one, just get a proper measurement of your flat top to the level of the buis' you have. I ended up using a yard stick(3ft) to determine a straight line of sight and then measured down to the rail. There are 3 size risers,I believe and they are all about the same price.

Excellent item and well made. Very happy with the purchase of this riser.

Fait parfaitement le job : léger, solide et facile a retirer ou cas ou. Je les utilise sur un CZ Skorpion EVO 3 : on conserve la visé d'origine grâce à l'ouverture creuser dans le rail..

Buena calidad, robusto, lo utilizo con una mira que no es replica, por lo que buscaba un mount de calidad, y la verdad que feliz con la compra.

Awesome mount, co witness with most back up iron sights. Take note there is only 3 notches, I have a larger red dot that overhangs at front and back so not ideal mount for it. I do have a smaller micro T-2 style red dot that fits perfectly.

Served my purpose, it has not broke yet. I have run about 2-3 hundred rounds of .22 Lr with my Bushnell Redot and has not lost zero as of yet. May update this review in a year to see how it goes.

Pretty sturdy little riser. Only problem is it’s really small. Bought it for my red dot which didn’t provide enough surface to mount. The picatinny surface is incredibly small. Just be aware that it won’t fit most sights unless it’s for iron flip up BUS sights.
