Viridian PINCH 35 Degree Offset Optic Mount with RMR Adapter Plate Black Anodized MPN 9820034 UPC 602835804831
Product Description
The Viridian Weapon Technologies® PINCH35™ Adjustable 35-Degree Offset Optic Mount with RMR Adapter (SKU: 982-0034 / UPC: 602835804831) is an elite secondary sighting solution engineered for seamless tactical and competitive carbine employment. Built to bridge the operational gap between high-magnification primary glass and immediate close-quarters target acquisition, the PINCH35 eliminates the excessive barrel roll mandated by conventional 45-degree mounts. By tightening the offset plane to an optimized 35-degree cant, shooters maintain a tighter cheek weld, preserve head-up situational awareness, and execute split-second close-range engagements without breaking optical drive or weapon indexing.
Engineered to withstand harsh operational abuse, the PINCH chassis and optical adapter plate are CNC-machined from stress-relieved billet 6061-T6 aircraft aluminum. The assembly is treated with a rugged MIL-A-8625 Type III Class 2 matte black hardcoat anodized finish, providing impenetrable defense against impact abrasion, environmental salt-fog corrosion, and caustic CLP or carbon-dissolving chemicals. Featuring precision-milled recoil lugs and locating posts tailored to industry-standard RMR footprints, the PINCH locks your secondary micro red dot into zero-retaining mechanical registration under violent 5.56 NATO and .308 Winchester recoil impulses.
Modularity stands at the forefront of the PINCH architecture. Featuring three distinct lateral offset mounting channels, the system allows armorers and shooters to adjust the optic’s lateral offset to clear oversized windage turrets, bulky throw levers, and wide LPVO scope ring assemblies. Its symmetrical, ambidextrous construction permits reversible mounting on either the left or right Picatinny rail quadrant. Paired with dual low-profile, snag-free flush-mount Torx rail clamp bolts, the mount ensures rock-solid lockup without catching on plate carriers, slings, or field barricades.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:*
Fitment Matrix: Direct clamp integration onto all MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails (AR-15, AR-10, bolt-action chassis, PCCs, and tactical shotguns). Included adapter plate interfaces natively with Trijicon RMR/SRO, Holosun 407C/507C/508T, Viridian RFX35, and RMR-pattern footprints. CRITICAL: NOT compatible with Shield RMSc, Holosun 407K/507K, Aimpoint ACRO, or Docter/Noblex footprints without changing adapter plates. Ensure Picatinny cross-bolts are torqued to exactly 20–25 in-lbs using a calibrated torque tool; torque RMR optic mounting fasteners to 12–15 in-lbs using non-permanent blue threadlocker (Vibra-Tite VC-3 or Loctite 242/243). Allow 24 hours of anaerobic cure time before live-fire zeroing.
- Ensure the host firearm is completely clear, magazine removed, and chamber visually and physically verified empty.
- Select your receiver or handguard Picatinny slot, ensuring clearance beneath primary optic turrets, magnification rings, and charging handle cycle paths.
- Install the RMR adapter plate onto the PINCH base using the preferred lateral position setting (1 of 3 positions) based on primary optic turret clearance.
- Mount your RMR-pattern optic onto the plate locating bosses, verify flush seating without thread bottoming, and torque optic screws to 12–15 in-lbs with medium threadlocker.
- Engage the rail clamp onto the receiver rail, verify full recoil lug seating forward in the cross-slot, torque rail clamp Torx fasteners to 20–25 in-lbs, and conduct dry-fire transition checks from primary optic to 35-degree cant.
Key Features
- Optimized 35-Degree Engagement Cant: Requires significantly less rifle rotation than traditional 45-degree mounts, speeding up target acquisition while preserving consistent cheek-weld index.
- Three Lateral Staging Positions: Adjustable footprint plate allows customized clearance around large tactical turrets, battery caps, and scope mounts.
- CNC-Machined 6061-T6 Aluminum: Ultra-lightweight billet structural core ensures unyielding mechanical rigidity and zero shift under sustained heavy recoil.
- MIL-A-8625 Hardcoat Anodized: Type III Class 2 surface protection delivers extreme wear, solvent, and corrosion resistance under duty conditions.
- Ambidextrous Reversible Geometry: Easily installed on either the ejection side or non-ejection side for left- or right-handed operators.
- Flush-Mount Dual Torx Fasteners: Streamlined, low-drag clamping hardware prevents gear snags and sling hangs while maintaining true Picatinny clamping tension.
