Trijicon Accessory Ring Cap – 34mm Tube – Q-LOC™ Footprint Mount – Matte Black Aluminum – AC22079 – UPC 719307619180
Add mission-ready modularity to your precision rifle—without adding rails, weight, or bulk. The Trijicon Accessory Ring Cap (AC22079) replaces the top half of a standard 34mm scope ring and integrates a Q-LOC™ footprint mount so you can securely attach a micro red dot, compact accessory plate, or other Q-LOC–compatible device right on top of your optic. Crafted from matte black anodized aluminum, this cap preserves your scope’s alignment while delivering a clean, low-profile platform for secondary sighting systems and accessories.
Why an accessory ring cap? It centralizes your add-ons at the optic—keeping weight inboard, cable runs tidy, and your cheek weld unchanged, while giving you fast access to a backup sight or mission-specific tool.
Key Benefits
Direct accessory mounting: Integrated Q-LOC™ footprint accepts Q-LOC–compatible accessories (e.g., micro red dots via plates, utility mounts) for rapid configuration.
No extra rails required: Replace your ring’s cap, not your base. Keep your rifle streamlined with fewer snag points.
Lightweight, rigid build: CNC-machined aluminum offers strength without significant weight—ideal for hunting and duty rifles.
Matte, low-glare finish: Black anodizing resists corrosion and reflections in field conditions.
Maintain zero & alignment: Swapping the top cap preserves your existing base/ring interface and helps protect scope tracking integrity.
Ideal Use Cases
Backup sighting: Mount a micro red dot for close-range shots while keeping your primary scope dialed for distance.
Competition & PRS: Stage-ready flexibility—add or remove accessories quickly to match target arrays and time constraints.
LE/DMR builds: Secondary optics for CQB transitions without changing cheek weld or stock height.
Backcountry hunting: Keep things minimal; carry one rifle with a versatile sighting stack for timber to tundra.
Feature Highlights
Tube Compatibility: 34 mm scope tubes (cap replaces the top half of a 34mm ring)
Mounting Interface: Q-LOC™ footprint on the cap for Q-LOC–compatible accessories/plates
Material: Aluminum (precision-machined) with steel fasteners (where applicable)
Finish: Matte black anodized for durability and low glare
Design: Drop-in replacement ring cap; preserves your existing ring base and rail position
Model / SKU: AC22079
UPC: 719307619180
Verify cap hole spacing and pattern against your Trijicon 34mm rings (e.g., Q-LOC ring families). Non-matching rings from other brands may require a different cap.
On-Rifle Advantages You’ll Notice
Faster transitions: Switch from magnified to 1× red dot instantly for movers or close-range engagements.
Cleaner cable management: Centralized mounting shortens runs for lights/lasers (when used with compatible plates).
Balanced handling: Keeps mass centered over the bore to minimize moment of inertia compared to offset rail mounts.
Compatibility Notes
Rings: Designed to replace the top cap of Trijicon 34mm rings with the matching screw pattern (Q-LOC ring families).
Accessories: Accepts Q-LOC™ footprint accessories/plates; specific optics may require a manufacturer plate/adaptor.
Rails: Works with your existing Picatinny mount for the ring base; no change to your rail or base is required.
Fit Check: Confirm ring family and cap screw spacing before purchase.
Installation (Quick Start)
Unload & clear your rifle.
Mark reference: Scribe witness marks on current ring cap and tube to preserve scope position.
Remove cap: Loosen cap screws in a cross pattern; lift off the original cap.
Install AC22079: Seat the Accessory Ring Cap over the scope tube; start screws by hand.
Torque evenly: Tighten in an X-pattern to your scope manufacturer’s ring-cap torque spec (do not over-torque).
Mount accessory: Attach your Q-LOC–compatible device per the manufacturer’s torque guidance; verify level/alignment.
Function check: Confirm eye relief hasn’t moved; verify zero and accessory operation at the range.
Pro tip: Record torque values and plate configuration in your data book for repeatable re-installs.
Care & Maintenance
Torque checks: Re-verify after the first range session and after major temperature swings.
Keep it clean: Wipe anodized surfaces with a soft cloth; keep clamp faces free of grit.
Periodic inspection: Check cap screws and accessory fasteners; reapply thread prep as recommended by the accessory maker.
Safety & Responsibility
Respect torque specs: Over-tightening can distort scope tubes; under-tightening can allow movement under recoil.
Clearance awareness: Ensure accessory footprint does not interfere with bolt throw, turrets, or ocular caps.
Four rules always: Safe handling applies during installation and testing.
