UNITY Tactical RAXIS Mount Will get Your MAWL In-Line -The Firearm Weblog

UNITY Tactical has launched a brand new product, this time for the B.E. Meyers MAWL laser. UNITY Tactical’s RAXIS is an in-line mount to reposition a MAWL so the laser is not offset. The RAXIS is a straightforward off-angle rail with the fitting geometry.

Lasers @ TFB:

To some, the offset laser of the MAWL is much less best than an in-line laser. Some complain in regards to the weight of the MAWL particularly because it sits offset to your handguard prime rail.

The UNITY Tactical RAXIS is obtainable in a rail grabber model for $125 or a QD model for $165.

At first look, the RAXIS simply looks as if a 45º offset rail. nevertheless it positions the MAWL laser straight over the barrel.

One other additional advantage to the RAXIS is that it retains your firearm streamlined.

One minor concern is the peak in addition to the repositioning of the onboard buttons on the MAWL. The MAWL button setup is good as it’s low profile and doesn’t add an excessive amount of thickness to your handguard prime rail. Now your thumb is pushed to the aspect but additionally this makes help aspect activation harder. You could possibly run a small Modbutton behind the RAXIS mount so you possibly can activate the MAWL when you needed to change shoulders and arms to shoot round a barricade. One other main concern is zeroing is extra sophisticated. The elevation and windage changes are not parallel and perpendicular to the bottom. So now once you alter the laser’s zero, every adjustment can be diagonal.

The opposite concern is how tall this makes the MAWL. From the images above, the MAWL seems to sit down slightly excessive. It’d obscure the backup iron sights constructed into the UNITY Tactical FAST optic mount.

The RAXIS jogs my memory of the in-line mount for the PEQ-15. Whereas an in-line laser is definitely extra useful and fascinating, I’m not certain the compromises are value it. Folks have been capable of make offset lasers work nicely for many years. If the RAXIS is one thing that solves a specific drawback for you, then go to their website.
