Description
Anyone who's tried to hold a flashlight in their teeth while breaking down a rifle knows the struggle. The Real Avid Smart-Assist Magnetic Mount fixes that with a simple idea done well: a magnetic dock that grabs onto any ferrous metal surface and stays put, so your Smart-Assist accessories go exactly where you need them and stay there while you work.
Inside are six N52 rare earth magnets, which is the strong stuff. That grip lets the mount hold on tight to a vise, a workstation, a toolbox, or the side of a steel bench, even when you've got a gooseneck arm and accessory hanging off it. Because it's magnetic, there's no drilling, no screws, and no clamping. You slap it down, position your gear, and reposition the whole thing in a couple seconds when the angle isn't working for you.
What the Smart-Assist Magnetic Mount Plugs Into
This is part of Real Avid's Smart-Assist system, so it's built to accept the same quick-connect accessories as the rest of the lineup: the rechargeable 180 lumen work light, the 5-inch magnifying glass, and the cell phone holder for pulling up how-to videos or reference material mid-project. The flexible arms let you dial in the exact position for lighting a dark chamber or zooming in on a small pin. Keep in mind the mount is the docking base only, so you'll want the accessories to go with it if you don't already have them.
Where the Magnetic Mount Earns Its Keep
The magnetic design shines when you're moving around a project or working somewhere without a permanent bench setup. Detail cleaning, optic installs, trigger work, or just inspecting parts under good light all get easier when your light and magnifier hover exactly where you left them. It's a small piece of kit, but it's the kind of thing that quietly makes every session on the bench go smoother once you've got it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Smart-Assist Magnetic Mount come with the light or magnifier?
No, the Magnetic Mount is the docking base only. It's designed to hold Real Avid Smart-Assist accessories like the 180 lumen work light, the 5-inch magnifying glass, and the cell phone holder, so you'll need those separately if you don't already own them.
What surfaces will the Magnetic Mount stick to?
It grabs onto ferrous metal, meaning steel and iron surfaces the magnets can grip. That covers a Real Avid Master Gun Vise, a metal workstation, a steel bench, or a toolbox. It won't hold to aluminum, wood, or plastic since those aren't magnetic.
How strong is the hold with the six N52 magnets?
N52 is among the strongest grades of rare earth magnet available, and the mount uses six of them. That gives it plenty of holding power to keep an accessory and its gooseneck arm steady while you work, even at angles. You can still pull it free by hand and reposition it whenever you need a different setup.
Is the Smart-Assist Magnetic Mount compatible with other Smart-Assist mounts I already have?
Yes, it uses the same quick-connect standard as the rest of the Smart-Assist lineup, including the Surface Mount and C-Mount. That means your existing accessories will swap right over to the Magnetic Mount without any extra adapters.
