LEAP/01
State of the art Aimpoint Micro T-2 mounts.
Designed for shooters who want the lightest, strongest, and most compact quick-detach red dot sight mount possible. The LEAP/01 redefines the standard for mounting your Aimpoint Micro T-2 footprint compatible optic to your AR-15's Picatinny top rail. Available in 1.42”, 1.57”, and 1.93” optic heights.
LIGHT MADE RIGHT
Engineered to be the lightest Aimpoint Micro T-2 QD mount, without compromising an ounce of strength.
The LEAP/01 is precision CNC machined from all six sides out of a single piece of 7075-T6 Aluminum billet to ensure the ideal strength-to-weight ratio.

MIGHTY MOUNT
The Leap is the strongest Aimpoint Micro T-2 Quick-Detach mount we've ever tested.
We tested a variety of quick-detach mounts on a digital test stand capable of exerting up to 1500lbs of force. We then used this data to refine our original Aimpoint Micro T-2 mount design, culminating in the LEAP; a quick-detach mount that is both the lightest and strongest on the market today.
A highly efficient clamp design guarantees precise operation and unprecedented rigidity: It features an oversize hooded thru-hole to buttress the thumbscrew's shank, which is the maximum possible diameter to fit a Picatinny channel. A pair of hardened steel precision ground pins is press fitted to the clamp and act as guides.
During its development, the Leap mount was subjected to dozens of stress tests before a single prototype was ever made. Finite Element Analysis (FEA) helped extract every bit of performance from every gram of material. This cutting-edge design process has resulted in the most efficient mount design possible.
Every Leap mount is CNC machined from 7075-T6 Aluminum billet, which has vastly superior mechanical properties to 6061-T6, and is used where ultimate strength and durability outweigh cost considerations.
SMOOTH IS FAST
Quick-Detach with no protruding levers or knobs.
The LEAP mount lets you shoot at your very best by eliminating snag hazards and putting nothing in the way of weapon manipulations. With its industry leading ClickDrive quick-detach mechanism, the Leap mount is symmetrical, protruding less than 7mm from either side of your Picatinny rail.
ClickDrive®
The world's most efficient quick-detach.
ClickDrive is a tool-free quick-detach system that self-adjusts to any MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail, making it a breeze to move your optic from rifle to rifle. Its low-profile thumbscrew and low-friction telescoping clamp require only the torque from your bare hand to securely attach the mount onto a rail. An integrated spring-loaded ball-detent exerts enough force against the crown to make it completely recoil proof. Since ClickDrive is a timed system, return-to-Zero is guaranteed as long as the same person takes it on and off.EVOLVED
The Leap mount is the most deliberate evolution of our original design.
From its introduction in 2014, the original Low Drag Mount featured our recoil proof ClickDrive® Quick-Detach mechanism, a precision telescoping clamp with world class return-to-zero, and a CNC machined base with the industry's highest strength-to-weight ratio, all while being as low-profile as a fixed bolt-on mount.
In 2015, the second-generation Low Drag Mount became the first Quick-Detach mount ever to be CNC machined from 7075-T6. Its external edges were rounded to minimize stress risers, the thumbscrew was Black Nitrided, and a pair of integral shear lugs was added to the clamp to further improve lateral impact resistance.
Today, the Leap mount features our strongest base with a forward lean to provide more room for magnifiers, and chamfered side pockets for improved thumbscrew access. The re-designed clamp has discreet hardened steel pins and a stopper to indicate when it's sufficiently open to clear a Picatinny rail.

One of the best engineered and designed products that I’ve ever had my hands on. Light, strong and stable: perfect for those close encounters that require rapid acquisition.

I purchased the lower 1/3 mount. Not only did this mount look cool (thanks Papa Thumb), but the quick drive attach/detach system is top notch. So impressive I immediately ordered another one at the 1.93 height for another weapon system. My mom thought it was really cool, and my airsoft buddies chest bumped me until my lungs hurt. My dad still hasn’t showed up to pick me up for his weekend.
All jokes aside…love everything about this mount. Super light weight. Solid construction and material. Looks great. Will be my go to for all future optics. Do yourself a favor and get one, you won’t be disappointed. If you get the 1.93 height it won’t co witness with irons so if you are like me and insist on having irons, run some 45 degree offsets and you’ll be fine.

This product exceeds my expectations. It is built very well and the fit and finish are perfect. It cowitnesses as advertised. Even after the constant vibration of being mounted in a vertical rifle rack in my police patrol vehicle, the mount and optic maintain zero. This is my first quick detach mount and although I have difficulty mounting it in less than three seconds, it is still quick and I prefer the Scalarworks QD locking mechanism over a lever style QD locking mechanism. The strength, weight, and durability of this mount/optic combination are unmatched. For a police patrol carbine in a mix of urban and rural environments, I find this combination ideal. I recommend this product to others and I will buy Scalarworks mounts in the future.

Perfection!

I purchased the 1.93″ height mount for an upcoming carbine match. I am impressed with the design and machining quality. They really seem to have thought of everything.
