MIGHTY MOUNT
The Leap is the strongest Trijicon MRO Quick-Detach mount we've ever tested.
We put a variety of QD mounts on a digital test stand, capable of exerting up to 1500lbs of force, and analyzed load versus displacement data for each. We then used everything we learned from these tests to refine our original 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 milled from 7075-T6 billet, which has vastly superior mechanical properties to 6061-T6, and is used where ultimate strength and durability outweigh cost considerations.
Smooth is Fast
The Leap has no protruding levers, bolts, or knobs to rap your knuckles, or get caught on clothing, gear, and surroundings.
ClickDrive™
Our patented ClickDrive™ quick-detach mechanism is intuitive, self adjusting, and completely recoil proof. By decoupling clamping force from vibration resistance, ClickDrive™ doesn't need massive amounts of imprecise torque, and is not dependent on unreliable friction. A low profile recessed thumbwheel deflects external impacts, while letting you take the mount off in under 3 seconds, with or without gloves.
Generations
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 milled 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 milled 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 an ever stronger 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.

Very Krisp, clean, sleek feel and look. Very durable yet lightweight. Maintains zero beautifully

Best mounting system on the market

Scalarworks is my go-to mount for my optic. Great products with great customer service!

This is my third Scalarworks mount and I could not be happier with the product and the quality. They are lightweight for you weight conscious snobs, they are tough and functional, and they hold zero even if I swap from carbine to carbine (obviously they are small nuances between rifles but generally speaking this holds true). The bottom line is these are the best mounts on the market, period.

I just received my MRO/LEAP05 bundle, and I couldn’t be happier. The packaging alone was worth five stars as the sight and mount come pre-assembled, vacuum-sealed, and with a QC checklist verifying everything is the way it should be. Also in the box were decals and a lens cleaning tool. I didn’t order either of these so the fact that they were included as part of the bundle further justifies my order. The box stores sell the MRO with the blocky mount (which is not in the 1.93 height mind you) for $550; or you can pay $520 from Scalar Works and get the same sight, a much more badass mount, plus swag and a cleaning tool. I am highly satisfied and will be ordering more from this company in the future. Semper Fi!
