FAST is a series of optic mounts and platforms that provide end users with a quicker sight picture than standard height mounts. A 2.26” optical centerline height provides faster/easier reticle acquisition while wearing electronic ear-pro/communications headsets, night vision goggles and gas masks and allows for more rapid visual processing of the battlefield by promoting a heads-up posture. A heads-up posture also helps users maintain a neutral spine position which is more comfortable while wearing helmets, plate carriers, and other heavy gear. The FAST Micro-S Mount places Aimpoint CompM5s, CompM5b, and Duty RDS sights at 2.26″ optical center line above weapon rails. This stance makes these optics fully compatible with our patented Flip-To-Center Magnifier Mounts and provides all the same application benefits found with legacy FAST Mounts.
