BENEFITS AND FEATURES:
HEADS-UP POSTURE
FASTER TARGET ID
IRON SIGHT PASS-THROUGH
DUAL OPTIC MOUNT
WHAT MAKES THE HYDRA V2 DIFFERENT?
A higher optic allows for a more athletic “Heads-up” posture that enables you to maintain a vertical spine which translates to body armor or “presenting plates” to the threat. This “Heads-up” style allows for faster processing speed and increased situational awareness.
The first dual optic mount to offer a 2.91” optic centerline for faster target ID, regardless of gear/ equipment obstructions, such as EarPro/Comms headsets, gas masks/ CBRN, and night vision goggles.
Perfect for the super short PDW/SMG platforms where rail space is limited, but mounting a light and aiming device is still critical. The pass-through on the neck allows for cable management or iron sight pass-through.
This unique and patented design offers an additional elevated Picatinny platform for directly attaching accessories; such as lights, optics, thermals, and aiming devices. When rail space is limited, but mounting a light and aiming device is still critical.
(A) Allen wrench pass through holes for easier optic mounting.
(B) Shorter back base allows for FTC magnifiers to be closer to the red dot optic.
(C) Screws and clamp are custom heated treated, black nitrided stainless steel.
(D) Wider cable management hole.
(E) Strengthened neck to allow for wider cable management.
(F) Holes for direct mount laser screws.
(G) Anodized coating.

I have been wanting a Hydra for a while. I researched to find the right height for the Huey and this is the way to go.
Solid piece of equipment!! Next is to put the set up on a SOLGW MK1
Love it. Just about perfect hieght. Really like that you mount the optic directly to the mount vs stacking mounts.
Love the product!
Shannon is awesome
I love the Hydra V2 Mount paired with the magnification mount. Quality products, purposefully built. This is my second set. Thank you
I have to be honest because I want I want to know in case this happens to you. We had some shipping issues. It turned out. It had nothing to do with GBRS group. Once again, it was not GBRS groups fault. I had to say I was impressed that they that they do return emails very quickly. Though I do wish they had a DIRECT phone number. I don’t want to put her name out there, but the lady I dealt with it. GBRS group was absolutely professional, super polite. I was having a bad day and literally the way she handled the situation turned it all around. Now, as far as the PRODUCT great packaging came with the tool that I needed directions and how to install a property with the correct torque. So far So far, I am really enjoying this optic specially when I tried it with my gas mask and definitely when Ijust started using it with thermal. So far, I have zero complaints as far as the product at all. I will be doing further testing in the future. Also wanna give a heads up on the gift they sent me it’s actually a really good quality sweatshirt and I started wearing it so thank you for that. I I highly highly highly recommend this product. My background is combat veteran Federal LEO and then government contractor for the Department of war. You’ll stay safe out there stay vigilant.
This is exactly what I needed to mount my laser aiming module centered to the rifle for weight balance. I am very satisfied with the quality of the cut and finish. GBRS also provides stellar customer service! I will be doing more business with GBRS in the future.
Just when you thought you had your rig setup very nicely, then this comes along and you wonder how you ever did without it. Perfect height for my Micro T-2 and better yet it got my laser/flash off my rail and up to the right height and location for an overall better balance. Wow!
Right out of the box I was super impressed with the quality and design of this. Easy to mount and feels rock solid on the rifle. As soon as I started running it, I was sold on its practicality. It creates such a natural position and it’s a game changer for NVG and gas mask applications. Highly recommend!
Took a night class with it. Best piece of modular kit I've ever used. Thank you.
My neck and ear pros thank you. Sweet design and easy install. Getting use to my DBAL being further back already see center of gravity benefits!
I had gone through several optic/mount configurations before I decided to give the Hydra V2 Mount kit a try with my EXPS 3-4 and G45. I'm a taller man (6'5") so I find that the 2.91" height is fantastic for me. It gives me almost the same height over bore that I had running a red dot on top of my ACOG, but it gives me the added comfort of not needing to drop my head down to utilize magnification, unlike the ACOG/red dot setup. Streamlined and fluid transitions from 1x to my 5x magnifier.
great optics and ir aiming device mount. I tried a few different ones and different set ups but they just didn’t seem to be it. Running the hydra mount checks off all the boxes I was looking for. Love the more heads up shooting feel. One thing that isn’t discussed much is it also bring the weight more center bringing your ir laser further back. Running a heavier can out front you can definitely tell the difference
This Hydra Mount is soo Durable. Battle Tested Forsure.
Wanted to go with the 2.91” approach for a specific build, essentially a sbr for night courses and training sessions. Great product all around. Solid, well built and enough design and built-in features to help with wire management while maintaining a low pro design with the ability to throw on an aiming laser without the need of an additional mount.
Great product and design. Awesome, if you've wondered about it stop and make the purchase. I considered the hydra since it's first came out and finally took a chance.
I have 22 years behind me in the Army and have not come across a better rifle accessory. My training and shot placement has improved.
Fit, Finish, and Quality are amazing. You can tell no expense was spared in the construction and quality of the parts!
