Upgraded the optic rail on my AP5SD from the included MKE one to a UTG Pro. I’m about to ditch the Sig Romeo and swap it with an Aimpoint PRO I have laying around. Anyone have recommendations for a QD mount that will sit as low as possible to keep from needing a chin weld?  Really want return to zero capability as I remove the optic when I dunk the barrel receiver in the ultrasonic tank to clean this dirty pig.

It's not the lowest or lightest, but, I used to run one of these on a Springfield M1A Scout's forward rail. I did not have any return to zero issues.

Hopefully, there's something a little lower and lighter.

Here is another that's a little less expensive. No experience with this model but do have several of their mounts be it RDS or scope...

That's lower (1.19") vs the ARMS (1.3" in low configuration).

MI makes a QD base for the standard Pro ring. I have one on an M4 and an Ruger American and love it. See the picture below.

if you don't need QD, try this. I have used it on a Ruger American.

Following up because people rarely do.  Went with the MI QD mount. Other than the fact the hardware they provide is too long (had to cut one of the bolts) it is exactly what I was looking for. Height is perfect. Thanks for the suggestions.
