Pic riser help

[Dairyboy]

So in ordering a Zulus my plan was to use on my Evol Mini. However I realize my rear mount area on my Evol only has 4 slots and the Zulus mount is 5 slots. So basically I'm looking for something that would be 3 slots mounting but have a 5 slot rail on top. As lo pro as possible. My quick searches found nothing I think would work. Any help would be appreciated.

I feel like Lion's Gear has a cantilevered riser thar fits your description. It might be more that five on top, however, but that could be cut down?

I'm looking for my LG riser now so I can see if it fits a 3-slot rail. Forgot I had this picture from when I tried to put a Spitfire 5x prism on a Leshiy.

Is something like this what you're looking for, assuming the top could be shortened?

Found the riser. It fits a 3-slot rail. It is 1/2" tall.

My recollection is that picatinny risers are always 1/2" tall minimum. The only exception I found were 3D printed risers for airsoft. I do not recall any of those having cantilever that would allow the three to five slot transition that you need.

Yeah that's exactly what I'm looking for! I can easily cut off the excess no problem. So Lions Gear?

Yes. I can spare one if you can't find inventory.

I found a couple that could work. I'll need to go through and see what I think will be best. Thanks a bunch man! I knew I was forgetting a word and that was cantilever. Exactly what I was looking for.

Ummm, never mind, duh moment

This what I ended up ordering. Has one extra slot which I'm not sure if I'll leave or remove but should work great.

UTG makes one like that as well. I got one for dovetail mount.

Would a quick release work?

 

[Dairyboy]

I got thus one the other day. Not sure i like it with the gap.

I'm trying this one now.

Seems to look good

Two suggestions for a solution...

Mill off one of the lugs on the Zulus mount and use two clamping screws, or mill an additional slot in the Evol to utilize the three screws and blacken the new slot with Birchwood Casey's Aluminum Black or paint.

There are a few things that you can try. On a few occasions I couldn't mount the zulus on the rear pic rails so the stock zulus mount has 4 mounting holes on the base and I have used 3, 2 or 1 of the holes to get some reach back. If you have zulus questions feel free to reach out.
