The American Defense Mfg 1700-XLR Titanium Lever Riser (American Defense part no. AD-1700-XLR-TL) is a quick-detach riser solution for an extended-length Picatinny rail, offering a 0.60-inch rise above the mounting surface. At an overall length of 5.5 inches, it provides a forward cantilever that pushes the optic over the handguard, making room for helmet-mounted night vision devices behind the sight. It’s built to pair with EOTECH XPS and EXPS holographic weapon sights and their magnifier combos, with a centerline height of 2 inches for 512/XPS models and 2.33 inches for the EXPS model. The titanium quick-detach lever shaves weight compared to a steel lever while keeping the same locking strength. Shooters running an EOTECH HWS with a magnifier and night vision get a purpose-built riser for that exact combination.
