Rised mount neoPATRON neoFAST01
Code: NP-NEOFAST01Product detailed description
Some products are created to solve a problem. Others are created to offer the same functionality at a more reasonable price. The neoPATRON neoFAST01 belongs firmly in the second category.
The neoFAST1 is a raised optic mount that positions the optical centerline at 2.26” above the Picatinny rail. The result is a more upright head position, faster target acquisition, and a more comfortable shooting experience.
1) Why was the neoFAST1 created?
Traditional low mounts work. No argument there. However, they force the shooter to lower their head closer to the stock, which is not always ideal. Especially if you use electronic hearing protection, a ballistic helmet, a gas mask, or simply prefer a more natural shooting posture. The main advantages of this mount include:
- 2.26” optical centerline height for a more upright head position
- Faster target acquisition when bringing the rifle up
- Improved peripheral vision and situational awareness
- More comfortable shooting with electronic hearing protection or additional gear
- Modern ergonomics for AR-15s, PCCs, and other Picatinny-equipped platforms
- No, the mount itself will not turn you into a special operations operator. But you will quickly understand why raised mounts have become so popular.
2) Integrated Backup Iron Sights
Red dot sights are fantastic. Right up until they stop working, the battery dies, the glass breaks, or something else happens that was never supposed to happen. That is why the neoFAST1 features integrated backup iron sights built directly into the mount body. They remain discreet, do not consume additional rail space, and are always available as an emergency aiming solution.
- Backup iron sights integrated directly into the mount
- Saves valuable space on the top Picatinny rail
- No need to purchase separate BUIS systems
- Emergency aiming capability in case of optic failure
- They are not intended to replace dedicated iron sights in every scenario. However, as an emergency backup integrated into the mount, they make a great deal of sense.
3) Compatibility with Various Red Dot Sights
- Aimpoint® Micro T-1 / T-2
- Aimpoint® Micro H-1 / H-2
- Aimpoint® CompM5
- Holosun® 403 / 503
- SIG Sauer® ROMEO4
- Vortex® Crossfire Red Dot
- Primary Arms® Micro Dot
- Other optics utilizing the Aimpoint® Micro footprint
NOTE: We always recommend verifying the mounting footprint of your specific optic before ordering. Some manufacturers use different mounting interfaces on visually similar models. If compatibility is an issue, you may of course return the product for a full refund.
4) Why Not Use a Standard Mount?
Because a standard mount simply holds your optic. The neoFAST1 combines improved ergonomics, elevated optic height, and emergency aiming capability in one compact package:
- Low mount – forces the shooter to lower their head more aggressively
- Raised mount without iron sights – improves ergonomics but offers no backup aiming solution
- Separate BUIS systems – take up space, add cost, and introduce additional components
- neoFAST1 – raised mount and backup iron sights integrated into a single unit
- In other words: fewer parts, less clutter, more practical functionality..
5) Construction and Installation
- The neoFAST1 is designed as a fixed mount for standard MIL-STD-1913 Picatinny rails.
- The mount body is manufactured from aluminum alloy and engineered to keep your optic securely in place, even during intensive use.
6) Who Is the neoFAST1 Designed For?
- Owners of AR-15 rifles and modern self-loading platforms who use electronic hearing protection
- Shooters using helmets, protective masks, or additional tactical equipment
- Anyone looking for modern ergonomics without paying premium-mount prices
The neoPATRON neoFAST1 is not the cheapest mount on the market. However, if you are looking for a 2.26” optical centerline, integrated backup iron sights, broad compatibility, and an excellent balance of price and performance, it is a highly compelling option.

AlwaysSecond comment: I gained the firearm passport in 2002 and started with shooting. And in 2008 started with trading of firearms and ammunition and shooting accessories. Since then I am purchasing, importing, selling, distributing, but mainly "using and cleaning". Since my earlies there has been numerous firearms and products going through my hands, and I had the chance to use them thoroughly. So I can quite quickly differentiate when somebody feeds me with marketing bullshits. I am capable to test the products myself and differentiate the reality from marketing. I am not relying on ANYBODYs reviews and do believe only in what I can test myself. I am no World Champion, but been 14 times Vicechampion of Czech Republic and about 13 times Second Vicechampion (well ... unlucky ... others have earned the golden ones. I am OK with it. But I have earned the nickname of "Mr.AlwaysSecond"). But: I have made enough shots in my career, to be capable recognize what works and what not. This helps me to choose the products for my shooting and also for my business. And this knowledge I will gladly share with you, whether you are one-horse-town champion, or real champion, or businessman, or somebody other from firearms industry.
Businesswise I do choose products that I like to use and I know why I do so. A these I would like to offer also to you. With most of them I do have extensive experiences to share. And I will be happy if I could help you with goods, or a good advice, or redirecting you. I am looking forward to meeting you
