Sightlok RF-1 Rangefinder Mount – Align/Co-Witness Sig BDX rangefinders w/ Sig Sauer BDX scopes.
Original price was: $229.95.$189.95Current price is: $189.95.
The Sightlok RF-1 is a mount which enables alignment/co-witness of any BDX rangefinder with any BDX scope.
By co-witnessing the rangefinder with the scope, the rangefinder and scope effectively become a single, integrated device. There’s no longer a need to deploy, aim, or view the target through the rangefinder. Simply hold the scope reticle over the target, push the rangefinder button, and take the shot.
PROVEN IN MILITARY APPLICATIONS
The co-witnessing of scopes with rangefinders and various other electro-optic sensors is a well-established practice in the military. Recent examples include the Next Generation Squad Weapons from Vortex®, the NGSW-FC XM157, which combines a traditional glass optic with a laser range finder and ballistic computer, atmospheric sensor suite, compass, wireless, visible and infrared aiming lasers, and a digital display overlay. The purpose of NGSW-FC is to increase the first round hit potential.
With the introduction of the Sightlok RF-1, civilians can match key features of the military’s NGSW-FC by combining the Sightlok RF-1 with one of the Sig Sauer line of BDX scopes and range finders, including a co-witnessed scope and rangefinder, ballistic calculator, atmospheric sensor suite, compass, and other smart features.
BENEFITS:
– 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
PRODUCT DETAILS:
The Sightlok RF-1 is designed and made in the U.S.A. from aerospace grade aluminum alloy with MIL-A-8625 spec Type III anodized hard coat finished in matt black.
AZIMUTH/WINDAGE AND ELEVATION ADJUSTMENT
The Sightlok RF-1 features 4 quick hand tightened thumbscrews that provides consistent and secure mounting of laser range finders. The 4 adjustable clamps enable the range finder point-of-aim to be precisely adjusted to match the point-of-aim of the scope. Two clamps on the side adjust Azimuth/Windage, while clamps on the bottom adjust Elevation.
Non-slip rubber on the clamp surfaces ensures that the rangefinder is held securely but not scratched by the clamp.
RANGEFINDER REQUIREMENTS:
The Sightlok RF-1 can accommodate any rangefinder with a width of 1.14″ (28.8mm) to 1.58″ (40.2mm). (See list of compatible rangefinders below).
SUPPORTED SIG SAUER BDX RANGEFINDERS:
With the exception of the KILO4K and the binocular-format rangefinders, all of the Sig Sauer BDX rangefinders fit the Sightlok RF-1, including the KILO1000BDX, KILO1400BDX, KILO1600BDX, KILO2200BDX, KILO2400BDX, KILO Canyon, KILO1600, KILO3K, KILO5K, KILO8K-ABS, and BUCKMASTERS 1500. A complete list of compatible laser rangefinders is listed below.
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.
MOUNT REQUIREMENTS:
The Sightlok RF-1 mounts securely to any Picatinny (MIL-STD 1913) or 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.

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. (PARD shoppers may wish to select the 12mm version which has a wider FOV). Digital night vision shows the infrared spectrum used by the rangefinder, so the laser beam 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.
