Sightlok RF-1 Rangefinder Mount – range faster using scope reticle, mounts to picatinny and weaver rails, mil-spec anodized 6061-T6 aluminum
Original price was: $299.95.$199.95Current price is: $199.95.
The Sightlok RF-1 is a Picatinny / Weaver rail mount for standard handheld rangefinders. It will convert most rangefinders into a weapon-mounted laser rangefinder (WMLRF).
KEY BENEFITS:
– Rangefinder can be co-witnessed (aligned) with the scope
– Rubber mounts increase rangefinder durability vs. rifle recoil
– Mount is solid and will “hold zero.”
ADVANTAGES VS. DEDICATED WMLRF:
– Lower cost
– Superior ranging performance & functionality
(Premium handheld rangefinders like the Sig Sauer KILO5K offer longer ranging, a better ballistic engine, and integration with the Kestrel wind meters for real-time windage calculations, at a fraction of the price of most dedicated weapon-mounted laser rangefinders).
– Eliminates the need for a scope ring replacement / diving board mount
– More flexible mounting options
– Eliminates the problem of illumination from the rangefinder display shining on the shooters face, which can reveal the shooter’s position during night-time engagements
– Enables more fully integrated electro-optic systems such as the Sig Sauer BDX rangefinder/scope system which automatically calculate the firing solution and display a holdover point in the scope reticle, eliminating the need to dial the scope’s elevation turret.
ADVANTAGES VS. HAND-HELD RANGEFINDING:
– Faster ranging
– More accurate ranging due to better optics and greater stability
– Better view of ranged targets using scope optics
– Scope and rangefinder operate as a single-unit
– Fast view switching between rangefinder & scope
– Faster firing solutions
– Fewer missed shot opportunities
– Increased first round hit potential
RANGEFINDER COMPATIBILITY:
Mount accommodates rangefinders with widths ranging from 1.14″ (28.8mm) to 1.58″ (40.2mm).
MATERIALS:
The Sightlok RF-1 is designed and made in the U.S.A. from aerospace grade aluminum alloy with Military Specification (MIL-A-8625F) Type III, Class II Hard Coat finished in matte black. Non-slip 3M rubber on clamp surfaces hold rangefinder securely and help protect the rangefinder from recoil.
MOUNT REQUIREMENTS:
The Sightlok RF-1 mounts securely to any Picatinny (MIL-STD 1913) or Weaver rail.
AZIMUTH/WINDAGE AND ELEVATION ADJUSTMENT:
The Sightlok RF-1 features 4 quick thumbscrews which shift the alignment of the rangefinder within the mount. These enable the rangefinder point-of-aim to be precisely adjusted to match the point-of-aim of the scope.
PROJECT OBJECTIVES:
The goal of the Sightlok RF-1 is to mount the rangefinder as close to the occular lens of the scope as possible such that the shooter can effortlessly switch between the two. To accomplish this, the Sightlok RF-1 allows the rangefinder positioning to be adjusted relative to the scope in 3 dimensions: Height, length, and horizontal distance from Picatinny/Weaver rail.
MOUNTING CLEARANCE:
The mount requires a minimum of 0.25″ (6.5mm) of clearance between the top of the rail and the bottom of the scope to mount under the scope. It can also be flipped and mounted to the rail under the scope occular if other mount points are obstructed.
SIZING AND ADJUSTMENT RANGE:
Rangefinder height adjustment (choose between 3 rails): 1.24″ (31.6mm)
Length adjustment: (sliding variable length as measured from from the front of the rail clamp to the back of the rangefinder holder) 4.3″ to 6.5″ (10.9-16.5cm)
Horizontal distance from Picatinny/Weaver rail adjustment (3 different-length options are included):
Small: 1.38″ (3.5cm)
Medium: 1.62″ (4.1cm)
Large: 1.94″ (4.9cm)
Having variable options for horizontal distance from the Picatinny/Weaver rail ensures that the rangefinder laser beam can clear windage/brightness/focus knobs/focus rings on the scope.
The Sightlok RF-1 can mount on either the left or right side of the scope.

DISCLAIMER / WARNING:
To date, we are unaware of any case whereby a Sightlok-mounted rangefinder was damaged by recoil. Clients have posted videos on Youtube testing the Sightlok mount with various high-powered rifles, and the rangefinder sustained no damage. However, it’s theoretically possible for a rangefinder to be damaged by rifle recoil. Use at your own risk.

Description
FAQ:
Q: How can I accurately align the rangefinder with the crosshairs on my scope?
A: There are 3 ways to accomplish this:
1. Simple method
Point scope crosshairs at a target at the approximate distance you intend to shoot. Stabilize shooting platform so the scope doesn’t move. Use the windage and elevation knobs on the mount to point the rangefinder reticle at the same aiming point as the scope reticle. Re-verify scope reticle has not moved from the target. Verify rangefinder reticle matches aiming point of scope. For extra accuracy, measure the distance between center of scope occular lens and the center of rangefinder occular lens, and maintain rangefinder point-of-aim parallel to scope crosshairs to prevent point-of-aim divergence over large distances.
2. More accurate method
A more accurate method is to have a target at the approximate distance you intend to shoot, where you have a much longer distance behind the target to use as a contrast. Point scope at the edge of the target. Adjust rangefinder so that it detects the point at which aiming point goes off the edge of the target both horizontally and vertically. Fire rangefinder while moving off the edge of the target. The rangefinder should be aligned so that it switches to displaying the much longer distance behind the target just as scope crosshairs move off the edge of the target. Again, for extra accuracy, measure the distance between center of scope occular lens and the center of rangefinder occular lens, and maintain rangefinder point-of-aim parallel to scope crosshairs to prevent point-of-aim divergence over large distances.
3. Most accurate method – requires digital night vision clip-on like a PARD NV007
Third method is to use a clip-on digital night vision scope like a PARD NV007 or the cheaper “DIY” Night Vision scopes priced around $100. Digital night vision shows the infrared spectrum used by the rangefinder, so the laser from the rangefinder becomes visible flashing on the target. This makes windage and elevation adjustment for the rangefinder easy and precise. Again, for extra accuracy, measure the distance between center of scope occular lens and the center of rangefinder occular lens, and maintain rangefinder point-of-aim parallel to scope crosshairs to prevent point-of-aim divergence over large distances.

As a former USMC sniper, I have some expertise with mounts that co-witness various sensors. I heard about this from a friend on Snipershide. After testing it on various rifles I am impressed. It can be adjusted to fit nearly any scope / rail / rifle combination. This tool really does raise the effectiveness of your shooting platform. The RF-1 has me ranging and sending rounds downrange faster. Most long range shooters could benefit from owning one.
Mounted this on an AR-308 long range rifle with a Sig Sauer 6BDX riflescope. Able to range targets now without ever looking though the rangefinder. One concern I had was whether it would be able to securely hold the rangefinder in the same place. Whether or not the rangefinder would “hold zero.” Obviously if you smash your rangefinder with a rock or a hammer, it’s going to move around and probably not going to work anymore. But short of impacts like this the grippy rubber on both the clamp holds the rangefinder securely without crushing or scratching it. The mounted rangefinder is properly holding zero and remaining co-aligned with the scope. Would definitely buy this again and everyone that’s seen it at the range wants one too.
This is a good piece of kit. Does what it says on the tin. One complaint I have is receiving it took 3 weeks because it was on backorder. Wish they would make a greater effort to keep these in stock. But like others have said this is a game-changer and I don’t know why it’s taken so long for someone to invent something like this. I’m a big game hunter and when you’re hunting every second counts. I can’t count how many shot opportunities I’ve missed because I couldn’t shoot fast enough. This cuts the amount of time it takes after spotting the target to taking an ethical shot by maybe 1/3 to a half. I’d say buy it if you’re a big game hunter.
I received one of early engineering samples which I offered to test in exchange for feedback. The bolt that came with it was a little too large for my weaver rail. The company immediately sent out a different nut and bolt that fixed the problem. Rest easy if you have a weaver rail as the problem is fixed on the newer units. Great customer service.
I love this
Good quality.
