Unity Tactical FAST™ Red Dot Riser – Raises Lower-1/3 Mounts to 2.26" Optical Height – Direct-to-Picatinny – Anodized Flat Dark Earth (FST-ORF / FSTORF) – UPC 810007880068
Unlock a true heads-up sight picture without ditching your favorite optic mount. The Unity Tactical FAST™ Red Dot Riser elevates any lower-1/3 co-witness red-dot or holographic mount to a modern 2.26" optical centerline, delivering faster dot pickup, easier passive aiming under night vision, and less neck strain—especially with armor, chest rigs, or cold-weather layers. Precision-machined and finished in durable Flat Dark Earth (FDE) anodizing, Model FST-ORF (FSTORF), UPC 810007880068 bolts directly to Picatinny (1913) rails and plays nicely with a wide range of lower-1/3 mounts from top brands.
Why 2.26"? The FAST height puts the optic where your eyes naturally land, improving posture, clearing chest-mounted kit, and preserving peripheral awareness for faster decision making.
Why Choose the FAST™ Red Dot Riser (FDE)
Instant 2.26" height with your current mount: Drop your lower-1/3 optic/mount on the riser to achieve the ideal heads-up height—no need to replace the mount you already trust.
NVG/passive aiming advantage: Extra height aligns the optic with NODs for clean passive aiming, minimizing optic-to-tube interference.
Direct Picatinny interface: Robust clamping geometry and quality hardware keep zero repeatable through recoil, weather, and hard training.
Duty-grade build: Precision-machined body with a hard-anodized FDE finish for abrasion and corrosion resistance in real-world conditions.
Cable/laser deconfliction: Additional vertical space helps route tape-switch leads and clear popular top-rail lasers (PEQ/MAWL) and BUIS.
Ergonomic posture: Stand taller, breathe easier, and reduce neck fatigue across long classes, patrols, or match days.
Key Identifiers
Brand: Unity Tactical
Product: FAST™ Red Dot Riser
Function: Elevates lower-1/3 red-dot/holo mounts to 2.26" optical centerline
Mounting: Direct to Picatinny (MIL-STD-1913)
Finish/Color: Flat Dark Earth (FDE), hard-anodized
Model / SKU: FST-ORF / FSTORF
UPC: 810007880068
Feature Highlights
Precision elevation geometry: Engineered flatness keeps POA/POI consistent across the receiver rail.
Low-profile footprint: Adds height without unnecessary bulk or snag points; keeps rail space open for accessories.
Torque-friendly hardware: Generous clamping surface and quality fasteners for reliable retention across temperature swings.
Optic-agnostic riser: Designed to host most lower-1/3 red-dot/holo mounts that attach via Picatinny.
Armorer-friendly: Install with common hand tools; swap back to standard height in minutes as mission needs change.
Compatibility note: This riser does not change your optic’s footprint; it raises lower-1/3 Picatinny-based mounts to 2.26". Verify your optic/mount combo is lower-1/3 before installation.
Real-World Performance You’ll Notice
Faster sight acquisition: The window meets your eye during the mount—fewer micro-adjustments before the shot.
Better comfort in armor: Upright head position reduces “turtling” behind the gun and keeps airways open.
Improved awareness: Heads-up stance preserves peripheral vision for transitions and CQB problem-solving.
Cleaner setup: Easier cable routing and less interference with lasers and front irons.
Ideal Users & Use Cases
LE/MIL carbines: Plate carriers, radios, and helmets demand a taller optic height for sustainable posture.
Night-vision training: Optimized for passive NVG aiming without relying on active illuminators.
3-Gun/USPSA PCC: Quicker presentations and forgiving head placement on the clock.
Home defense/training rifles: Immediate sight picture across unconventional positions and seasonal clothing layers.
Installation (Quick Overview)
Unload & clear the firearm.
Seat the riser on a true Picatinny/1913 section and align fully.
Torque cross-bolts to Unity’s spec.
Mount your lower-1/3 optic/mount on top; torque per the optic/mount manufacturer.
Re-zero at your preferred distance (25/36/50/100) and confirm close-range offsets.
If unsure, consult a qualified armorer. Recheck torque after the first live-fire session.

What’s in the Box*
Best Practices & Care
Re-zero after install: Increased sight height changes mechanical offset at CQB distances.
Verify torque periodically: Check fasteners after the first range trip and on a maintenance schedule.
Heat awareness: Leave a rail gap near hot gas blocks or suppressor overhang to reduce heat soak.
Plan cable management: Dry-fit switches and lasers before final torque for a snag-free layout.
