The parallel clamping members of the Rogers Sight Mount (RSM) are molded with a slight bias in the shape of a bow. This allows the force of the single cross bolt to be distributed evenly over the entire engagement of the weapon's rail. This design provides a much better clamp using less force.
The lever-operated locking cam of the RSM is unusual in that it locks on the top dead center of the cam. Most designs require the throw lever to go over center in order to lock, and locking force is lost by going over center, so conventional mounts must be adjusted over tight in order to not shoot loose. The RSM uses an alternative lock system that allows the lever to lock at the highest point on the cam. The result is a better lock up with less force, which reduces wear and tear on the part and is easier to operate.
The RSM uses a glass-filled polymer similar to that used for modern pistol frames. The glass-filled material has a much greater coefficient of friction while locking to a metal rail. It also has the ability to custom form to any slight imperfections in the metal rail of the weapon. The end result is a mount that does not shoot loose and will repeat zero when removed and reinstalled as long as it is returned to the same position on the weapon rail.
