Unity Tactical - FAST Thermal Riser - Black

The Unity Tactical FAST Thermal Riser is designed to elevate thermal optics to a 2.05″ optical centerline. This elevation is crucial for users who need to align their thermal optics with other sighting systems or achieve a more ergonomic shooting position. By raising the optics, the riser allows for better situational awareness and easier target acquisition, especially in tactical scenarios where speed and accuracy are paramount.

By elevating thermal optics, the riser ensures that the user's line of sight is clear and unobstructed. This is particularly beneficial in environments where quick transitions between different sighting systems are necessary. The elevation helps maintain a consistent cheek weld and shooting posture, which can improve accuracy and comfort during extended use.

The riser is constructed from 7075-T6 aluminum, a material known for its strength and durability. This choice of material ensures that the riser can withstand the rigors of tactical use, including exposure to harsh environmental conditions. The Type III hardcoat anodized finish adds an extra layer of protection against corrosion and wear, making it a reliable component of any tactical setup.

The riser is compatible with thermals that have an OEM 1.54″ clip-on mount and are mounted on a UNITY CTM. This compatibility ensures that the riser can be integrated into a variety of setups, providing flexibility for users who may need to switch between different thermal optics. It occupies only three slots on a standard M1913 rail, making it a compact addition to your gear without sacrificing functionality.

The riser uses a standard 2 cross bolt rail clamp for secure attachment. This mounting system ensures that the riser remains stable during use, even under the recoil of heavy firearms. The secure attachment is vital for maintaining zero and ensuring that the thermal optics perform consistently in dynamic shooting environments.

The riser measures less than 1.4 inches in width, 3.6 inches in length, and 0.6 inches in height. It weighs under 2.5 ounces, making it a lightweight addition to your tactical gear. The compact size and minimal weight ensure that it does not add unnecessary bulk or significantly alter the balance of your firearm.

The riser is particularly beneficial in tactical and hunting scenarios where quick target acquisition is essential. Its ability to elevate thermal optics allows for better visibility over obstacles and improved alignment with other sighting systems. This is especially useful in low-light or no-light environments where thermal imaging is crucial for identifying targets.

The lightweight design of the riser ensures minimal impact on the balance of your firearm. Weighing less than 2.5 ounces, it does not significantly alter the handling characteristics of your weapon. This allows users to maintain control and maneuverability, which are critical in tactical situations.

Constructed from 7075-T6 aluminum and finished with a Type III hardcoat anodized coating, the riser is built for durability. These materials are chosen for their ability to withstand harsh conditions and resist wear over time. This ensures that the riser remains a reliable part of your tactical setup, even with frequent use in challenging environments.

While the riser is highly effective for elevating thermal optics, it may not be suitable for all firearm configurations. Users should ensure that their rail system can accommodate the additional height without interfering with other mounted accessories. Additionally, while the riser itself is lightweight, users should consider the overall weight and balance of their setup to maintain optimal performance.
