Daniel Defense 1 O'Clock Offset Picatinny Accessory Rail Aluminum Black 03-029-13017 UPC 852548002189
Product Description
The Daniel Defense 1 O'Clock Offset Picatinny Accessory Rail (03-029-13017) is an ambidextrous, low-profile mounting solution engineered to place secondary optics or tactical accessories at a 45-degree angle relative to the top receiver rail. Designed to optimize weapon platform transitions, this offset rail allows shooters to maintain a primary magnified optic while keeping a secondary red dot sight or weapon light positioned at the 1 o'clock or 11 o'clock position for rapid close-quarters engagement by simply rotating the rifle.
Precision CNC-machined from 6061-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum, the 03-029-13017 delivers extreme structural rigidity without adding unnecessary forward mass to the handguard. The mount features a compact 1-slot MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rail section that sits close to the host receiver, keeping the secondary optic or illumination device tucked tightly against the handguard profile to prevent snagging on sling webbing, barricades, or gear straps.
Finished with a Mil-Spec Type III hardcoat black anodizing, this offset mount offers superior protection against severe environmental corrosion, tactical chemical exposure, and field abrasion. Featuring a robust single-bolt clamping mechanism, it securely locks onto any standard MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny top rail, providing repeatable alignment and unwavering zero retention under heavy recoil impulse.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:*
Fitment Matrix: Clamps directly to any standard MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny top rail section. Reversible design allows mounting for right-handed (1 o'clock position) or left-handed (11 o'clock position) secondary optic or weapon light configurations.
- Thoroughly clean and degrease the rail section on the host firearm's top Picatinny rail.
- Place the Daniel Defense offset mount onto the rail slot, ensuring the cross-bolt seats fully inside the recoil groove.
- Mount your micro red dot base or light mount onto the 1-slot offset rail section before or after attaching to the host rifle, applying threadlocker (Blue 242/243) to mounting screws.
- Push the offset mount forward toward the muzzle to seat the cross-bolt against the forward slot face, then torque the clamping screw to factory specification (30 in-lbs).
