Pro Cantilever | 30mm | Vortex

Pro Cantilever 30mm Vortex – this mount for stable optics

This Vortex Pro Cantilever is a robust mount for rifle scopes with a 30mm tube diameter. The cantilever design positions your optics further forward, allowing you to maintain a natural shooting stance without having to bend your head uncomfortably. A smart choice for airsoft replicas where mounting positions are often limited.

Our opinion on this mount

The Shogun team is impressed by the sturdiness of this Vortex mount. The aluminium feels solid without being unnecessarily heavy – at 197 grams you’ll barely notice it on your replica. The matte black finish looks professional and the construction feels like it will last for years, even with intensive use.

Technical and mounting features

The Pro Cantilever has a 30mm ring diameter, perfect for medium to large rifle scopes. With a height of 6.4 cm you get enough clearance for objectives up to about 50mm without touching the rail. The cantilever design moves your optics approximately 5 cm forward – ideal when your rail is too short or when you want to achieve better eye relief.

The mount is fully CNC-machined from a single piece of aluminium, ensuring minimal flex under recoil. The rings clamp evenly around your scope thanks to four screws per ring. For more technical details, you can consult the 'More information' tab.

Mounting and compatibility

This Vortex mount fits any standard Picatinny rail – this is the standard for airsoft replicas and many PCP air rifles. The Picatinny interface provides secure attachment and broad compatibility with virtually all modern platforms. The cross-bolt fastening ensures the mount stays firmly in place, even on replicas with significant recoil.

Note: this mount is supplied without tools. You will need an Allen key for installation. The mount is specifically designed for scopes with a 30mm tube – so check the diameter of your rifle scope first.

Who is this mount for?

This Pro Cantilever is ideal for airsoft players who want to position their rifle scope further forward for better balance and a more natural shooting stance. Perfect for use in tactical simulations where quick target acquisition is important. Also suitable for sport shooters with a shorter rail who still want to mount a large rifle scope. The sturdy construction makes it suitable for both beginners and advanced users who value reliable optics mounting.
