Product Description
The Annex Defense Sidekick ARCA Rail (Q-Sert Interface) is purpose-built for shooters running Q platforms and Q-Sert rails who want to add tripod capability without compromising the rifle’s original design intent.
Instead of a traditional flat ARCA rail that takes up valuable space and changes how the rifle handles, the Sidekick uses a side-oriented ARCA interface—keeping the profile minimal while still providing a secure connection to tripod systems.
This design maintains the lightweight, minimalist philosophy that Q rifles are known for, while giving you the ability to quickly mount up when needed.
If you’re running a Q platform and want ARCA compatibility without adding bulk, this is one of the cleanest solutions available.

Notes from Ally Munitions
This is our go-to solution for Q-Sert setups.
One of the main reasons people run Q rifles is for the lightweight, minimalist hunting design, and most traditional ARCA rails go directly against that.
This solves that problem.
You still get the ability to mount to a tripod, but without:
- Taking up unnecessary space
- Adding bulk to the handguard
- Changing how the rifle feels in the hand
It keeps everything true to what Q intended—a lightweight, streamlined hunting rifle.
For us, this is the best way to add tripod capability to a Q platform without overbuilding it.
