Lantac's Innovative SOL: Maximizing Rail Space for EOTech OGL Users
Author: Aleksa M. | Publish Date: Apr 15, 2025 | Fact checked by: Marko Lalovic
The revolutionary Lantac SOL (Sight On Laser) represents a significant advancement in tactical accessory integration, specifically designed to address the common challenge of limited rail space when using backup sights alongside laser systems. This patent-pending solution mounts directly to the EOTech OGL, leveraging the device's aluminum chassis and T10 Torx head screws for a secure attachment point.
When installed on a standard 10.5" handguard, the SOL provides remarkable improvements over traditional folding sights: it extends the sight radius to 16.5" (versus 15.25" with conventional options) while preserving 6.0" of available rail space (compared to just 3.5" with traditional sights). This engineering achievement significantly enhances both aiming precision and accessory mounting flexibility.
Manufactured from certified 7075-T6 Aerospace alloy with MIL-A-8625 Type III Hardcoat Anodization (Class 2, Black), the SOL exemplifies Lantac's commitment to military-grade durability. Priced at $195, it accepts any compatible aftermarket sight post, including tritium options for low-light operations.
The SOL's direct attachment to the Laser/Illuminator eliminates rail space consumption entirely—a crucial advantage for operators needing to mount additional accessories. Even on compact setups, it can be positioned at the forward-most point of the top rail, maximizing sight radius and improving shooting accuracy.
Field-ready by design, the SOL features minimal forward projection from the Laser Aiming Module and incorporates an angled front face to reduce snag potential during tactical operations.
According to Lantac, the SOL offers precise adjustment capabilities without consuming valuable rail space. It utilizes standard AR-15/M16/M4 sight posts, providing 1.250 MOA adjustment per quarter turn and 5 MOA per full revolution. The sight post channel is positioned at exactly 2.357" over bore—matching A2-style front sight bases and delivering equivalent elevation adjustment range.
