The Standard Quick Detach mount for the ITT 6015 and PVS14 night vision monoculars are designed to rapidly and easily from a head/helmet mount or hand surveillance to a weapon mount. The unique Q.D. remains attached to the night vision monocular at all times and interfaces with the weapon's mount in mere seconds. The Q.D. ring mount permits optical co-alignment with optical sights, such as the Aimpoint or EOTech HOLOsight, that may be mounted in front of the night vision scope. This mount is fully compatible with MIL-STD-1913 dovetails and the GG&G FIRE System. The standard Q.D. mount was designed for use the the GG&G FIRE System Scout Rail. With this combination of components, the ITT 6015 or PVS14 viewing image will clear the M16/AR's front sight post and the unit itself will have sufficient clearance over the MAD or A2 flip ups rear sights. The Q.D. Mount is manufactured from ordnance steel and aerospace aluminum finished to mil spec.
