Unity Tactical, the manufacturer of shooting accessories and parts for weapons, has presented two new products addressed to shooters using optical sights.
The first, in our subjective opinion, more interesting accessory is universal and it is worth emphasizing this word, mount for magnifiers called the FAST OMNI Magnifier Mount.
Until now, FAST mounts were available only for the Eotech G33 and Aimpoint magnifier attachments. The FAST design itself is interesting, as it is oriented towards the optimization of the use of the attachment while maintaining the minimum outline of the weapon and optics. Contrary to the well-known FTS (Flip To Side) mounts, where the magnifier is moved to the side, FAST mounts move it down, removing it from the shooter's field of view, while not limiting the visibility on the sides of the weapon.
This is possible, among other things, thanks to the use of an optics riser and the lifting of the entire optical system. This solution not only allows to move the magnifier in the described way, but also makes it easier to work with a weapon using gas masks or night vision goggles.
The new FAST OMNI mount is to be available for a number of magnifiers popular on the market, including:
- EOTech: G30, G23, G33, G43, G45
- Vortex: VMX-3T, Micro 3X, Micro 6X
- Trijicon: X MAG-C
- Sig Sauer: Juliet 3X, Juliet 4X, Juliet Micro 3X
FAST OMNI is scheduled to be available on March 15, in black and FDE. The price has not been stated, but the current FAST FTC Eotech G33 Magnifier Mount is available for $ 219.
Another interesting product for optics, although with a slightly wider application, is the FAST COG Series Mount, designed for use with the Trijicon ACOG and VCOG products.
This high mount allows to place the aforementioned sights at a height of 2.05″, ensuring better and faster aiming of a weapon.
A useful option is the ability to install a mini reflex sight on the selected side of the mount using the FAST LPVO Mount Offset Optic Base to ensure faster transition from the optics with a zoom to a reflex sight.
The cost of the FAST COG is 179 USD and the FAST LPVO Mount is about 66 USD. Both accessories are available in black and FDE.
