InfiRay RICO MICRO PICTAIL Helmet/Weapon Shoe

The InfiRay RICO Micro PICTAIL shoe is a hybrid mounting solution that pairs a standard dovetail helmet shoe with a MIL‑STD‑1913 picatinny rail to support both helmet and weapon installations. It was developed to provide a consistent mounting footprint across platforms and is compatible with common dovetail receptacles from manufacturers such as Wilcox and KVC. The PICTAIL works with the ADM MQD to allow adjustable offset and footprint options for standalone optics or clip‑on configurations.
