Wilcox G24 Breakaway Dovetail Mount
Wilcox G24 Breakaway Dovetail Mount
Description:
The Wilcox G24 Breakaway Lever Mount is designed to interface with various bracket-style NVG Shrouds. The G24 is one of the most universal mounts in the Wilcox line because it does not require a proprietary shroud. It does, however, retain the sought-after breakaway feature found on other Wilcox models.
The breakaway feature allows the operator to preset the mount for a secure lock with the shroud or to allow it to break away under stress so as to prevent injury. Activities that could cause entanglement such as rappelling and fast roping or high speed operations where the NVG can bang into objects are a leading cause in neck and head injury to soldiers. The ability of the G24 to break free of the shroud under these conditions protects the user’s body and the NVG from severe injury or damage.
Three axes of adjustment allow for precise positioning, and its lightweight aluminum construction makes it compatible with standard helmet shrouds.
The ergonomic design enables one-handed operation while the safety breakaway feature enhances safety during jumps and runs. This low-profile, lightweight mount is perfect for any night vision device utilizing a standard dovetail interface.
This mount is compatible with any night vision device that has a standard Wilcox pattern dovetail interface. It is NOT compatible with bayonet mounting systems.
