Mini-14 Red Dot Mount (T1/T2 Footprint)

A better way to mount a red dot on your Mini-14.

Meet the FLIP Mini-14 Red Dot Mount

Looking for a lightweight, low-profile red dot setup that actually looks like it belongs on your Mini-14?

That was the goal behind our Mini-14 Red Dot Mount. It places a modern red dot naturally over the action while keeping the setup simple, compact, and true to the Mini-14’s streamlined character.

We’ve also integrated a line-of-sight channel through the mount that keeps your iron sights usable underneath.

Compatibility

Fits newer Mini-14 receivers with the three factory-tapped holes used for the Ruger Picatinny rail. Rifles without these holes are not compatible.

• Natural Optic Position: Places the red dot naturally over the action for a clean, intuitive build.
• Keep Using Your Irons: A line-of-sight channel through the mount keeps your iron sights usable underneath the red dot.

California Customers

Given new legislation, the FLIP Defense Team is currently only offering products for sale to our California customers that do not meet the definition of  "firearm accessories" as outlined in AB1263 until we can determine a way ahead to implement the new requirements identified in the law. As a small family company, this may take us some time, so we appreciate your patience as we work to understand a viable way for us to implement the new requirements to resume shipping options for certain products. 

Given that optics mounts are NOT included in the definition of regulated "firearm accessories" in AB1263, we will continue to offer them to our California customers at present. That being said, to be abundantly clear, we will require that all customers read and acknowledge the legal notice below prior to purchasing any FLIP DEFENSE product, regardless of type or customer shipping address.
