Kastle Group DB-226™ Diving Board

Kastle Group DB-226™ Diving Board The Kastle Group DB-226™ Diving Board is a lightweight, modular accessory rail designed to expand the capability of modern rifle platforms by providing additional mounting space forward of elevated optics. Designed specifically for use with Kastle Group’s MICRO-226™ and ACRO-226™ optic mounts, the DB-226™ allows shooters to mount lasers, thermal devices, and other mission-specific accessories while preserving valuable rail space further forward on the rifle. Modern night vision and thermal setups often require multiple devices while maintaining proper ergonomics and a clean weapon interface. The DB-226™ provides an optimized solution by extending a M1913 Picatinny rail section forward of the optic mount, allowing users to position critical accessories exactly where they are needed without overcrowding the handguard or receiver. Machined from 7075-T651 aluminum and finished with a Type III MIL-SPEC hardcoat anodizing, the DB-226™ delivers the strength and durability required for duty and hard-use applications while maintaining a lightweight profile. The robust construction ensures a secure mounting surface for thermal optics, IR lasers, and other accessories used in demanding environments. For night vision applications, the DB-226™ is an ideal addition to rifles equipped with elevated red dot mounts. By moving accessories forward of the optic, shooters can maintain a natural heads-up shooting position, improve passive aiming performance with helmet-mounted night vision, and create a more streamlined rifle configuration. The DB-226™ is compatible with most major thermal and IR/visible laser platforms featuring a Picatinny mounting interface, making it a versatile solution for compact carbines, short-barreled rifles, and other platforms where traditional rail space is limited.
