Unity Tactical FAST Optic Riser 2.26" Picatinny Black
The Unity Tactical FAST Optic Riser provides a simple way to bring compatible red dot sights using lower 1/3 mounts to the elevated 2.26-inch FAST optical centerline. Rather than replacing the optic's existing mount, the FAST Optic Riser attaches directly to the firearm's Picatinny rail and provides an elevated Picatinny mounting platform.
This makes the FAST Optic Riser a versatile solution for compatible red dots and mounts that do not require a dedicated FAST optic-specific mounting interface. The elevated height promotes the heads-up shooting position that defines Unity Tactical's FAST series.
Elevates Lower 1/3 Mounts to FAST Height
The FAST Optic Riser is specifically designed to elevate a compatible optic using a lower 1/3 co-witness mount to a 2.26-inch optical centerline. This allows shooters to retain their existing compatible optic mount while moving the entire assembly to FAST height.
2.26" Optical Centerline
Unity Tactical's 2.26-inch optical centerline promotes a more upright head position behind the firearm. The additional height can make reticle acquisition easier when working around electronic hearing protection, communications headsets, night vision goggles, gas masks, and other head-mounted equipment.
Direct-to-Picatinny Design
Unlike an optic-specific mount, the FAST Optic Riser uses a Picatinny-to-Picatinny configuration. The riser attaches directly to the firearm's Picatinny rail and provides an elevated Picatinny surface for installation of a compatible red dot and its existing lower 1/3 mount.
7075-T6 Aluminum Construction
The FAST Optic Riser is manufactured from 7075-T6 aluminum and protected by a Type III hardcoat anodized finish. This black configuration provides a durable mounting platform while maintaining a streamlined profile.
Standard Rail Grabber Mount
This configuration comes equipped with Unity Tactical's standard rail grabber mount for secure attachment to a compatible Picatinny rail.

Why Choose the Unity Tactical FAST Optic Riser?
The Unity Tactical FAST Optic Riser is a versatile option for shooters who already have a compatible red dot installed on a lower 1/3 mount but want to move the optic to Unity's elevated FAST height. Because it provides a raised Picatinny surface rather than an optic-specific footprint, it can work with a broader range of compatible red dot and mount combinations.
With its 2.26-inch optical centerline, 7075-T6 aluminum construction, Type III hardcoat anodizing, and direct-to-Picatinny design, the FAST Optic Riser provides a straightforward way to build an elevated red dot setup without replacing a compatible existing lower 1/3 mount.
