The Midwest Industries MK2 30mm Scope Mount in Standard Height is a precision-engineered ring system built for shooters who demand a solid, repeatable platform for their optics. Whether you're dialing in a hunting rifle, setting up a target gun, or running a duty carbine, this mount locks your scope in place with the kind of rigidity that pays dividends downrange. Midwest Industries has a reputation for American-made quality, and this 30mm mount delivers exactly that—no marketing flair, just a purpose-built tool that holds zero through recoil and stays put through years of use.

The MK2 series uses 4140 heat-treated steel clamps to grip your scope tube, backed by hard-coat anodized 6061 aluminum construction that resists corrosion and handling wear. The Standard Height configuration positions your scope at 1.550 inches above the rail's centerline, a familiar and comfortable sight picture for AR platforms and most flat-top rifles. Torx hardware threads into integrated fastening points on both the clamps and scope caps, making assembly straightforward and allowing you to use the included Midwest Industries Optic Mount Tool for consistent, proper torque. The mount accepts scopes up to 56mm in objective diameter—plenty of room for modern hunting and precision optics.

Built in the USA and backed by a lifetime warranty, this isn't a budget mount or a generic off-the-shelf clone. The precision engraving on the aluminum body and the attention to fit and finish reflect Midwest's commitment to the kind of gear you'll still be running ten years from now. If you're looking for a 30mm ring system that does the job without pretense, this is it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this mount fit my AR-15 or other flat-top rifle?

Yes. The MK2 30mm Standard Height mount is designed to work with standard Picatinny rails found on most modern rifle platforms, including AR-15s, AR-10s, and other flat-top systems. The Standard Height configuration puts your scope at a comfortable 1.550 inches above the rail centerline, which is the typical height for these rifles.

What scopes will work with this 30mm mount?

Any rifle scope with a 30mm tube diameter will fit in these rings, as long as the objective lens diameter is 56mm or smaller. This covers the vast majority of modern hunting, tactical, and precision rifle scopes on the market.

What's included in the box?

The mount comes with the ring assembly and an Optic Mount Tool made by Midwest Industries, which allows you to properly install and adjust your scope. You'll have everything you need to get your optic mounted and zeroed.

Is there a higher mounting option if I need more clearance?

Midwest Industries makes a High Height version of the MK2 30mm mount that positions the scope at 1.930 inches above the rail. You would need to order that variant separately if Standard Height doesn't give you the clearance you're after.
