Zenitco B-5VU QD Riser Mount (V2.0)
Genuine Zenitco | Extended Picatinny-to-Picatinny riser adapter | See-through optical channel underneath | Quick-detach lever (V2.0) | Black
In short: the Zenitco
B-5VU is the
extended version of the
B-5 riser. It clamps onto a
Picatinny rail and provides a longer Picatinny rail higher up, leaving a
see-through optical channel between the two levels. The longer top rail suits larger optics and thermal units; the V2.0 version uses a
quick-detach lever for tool-free mounting with a repeatable return to zero.
Overview
The B-5VU V2.0 is the tall member of the Zenitco riser family. It is a Picatinny-to-Picatinny adapter with an optical channel between the two rail surfaces.
Its height is chosen so that a Gran thermal device and a red dot sight with a 30 mm optical axis can be used together on one platform - the thermal device below, the red dot sight above, both on their own mounting line.
Compatibility covers the Vzor-1 on the PV-30 spacer supplied with the sight, the Vzor-3, Vzor-3T and Vzor-3TK on the PV-30 spacer sold separately, and the Vzor-5, Vzor-5T and Vzor-5TK in their standard configuration. At 84 g the riser adds little to the balance of the platform.

Compatibility: mounts on any standard Picatinny rail and accepts any Picatinny-footprint optic, red-dot platform, thermal or accessory on its raised rail. The open channel underneath keeps a lower optic or backup sights visible through the riser.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is the B-5VU different from the B-5?
The B-5VU has a longer top rail, giving more mounting length for larger optics and thermal units. Both leave a see-through channel underneath.
How does it attach?
With a quick-detach lever (V2.0) onto any standard Picatinny rail - no tools needed.
What can I mount on it?
Any Picatinny-footprint optic, red-dot platform, thermal or accessory.
Do I need the PV-30 spacer?
The Vzor-1 ships with it. The Vzor-3, Vzor-3T and Vzor-3TK need it and it is sold separately. The Vzor-5 line does not need it.
Why would I choose the B-5VU over the B-5V?
The B-5VU is taller. It is the version to pick when a Gran thermal device has to sit under the red dot sight, or when the sight has a 30 mm optical axis.
