Left: Aimpoint Acro C2 reflex sight laying on its side. Right: Acro rail on a Picatinny riser. Approximate dimensions of an Aimpoint Acro rail. Some dovetail rails have integrated recoil lugs. One example is the Aimpoint Acro rail which is a 45 degree rail with a width of approximately 16.5 mm.
Ring mounts usually consist of a base attached to the firearm and rings (usually two) attached to the sight. The rings are usually made of steel or aluminum. Common diameters on ring mounts are 25.4 mm (1 inch), 26 mm, 30 mm and 34 mm. There are big differences in the strength and ability of sustained precision on different assemblies.
Aimpoint Acro rail: Launched in 2019 together with the sights Aimpoint Acro P-1 and C-1. [21] This is a mount without screws acting directly between the sight and the mount, and is slim enough (approximately 15 mm wide and 2 mm tall) so that it can be milled directly into most pistol slides.

In the largest telescopes, the mass and cost of an equatorial mount is prohibitive and they have been superseded by computer-controlled altazimuth mounts. [5] The simple structure of an altazimuth mount allows significant cost reductions, in spite of the additional cost associated with the more complex tracking and image-orienting mechanisms. [6]
The only significant difference between the MIL-STD-1913 rail and the similar Weaver rail mount are the size and shapes of the slots. Whereas the earlier Weaver rail is modified from a low, wide dovetail rail and has rounded slots, the 1913 rail has a more pronounced angular section and square-bottomed slots. This means that an accessory ...
