ABOUT TIER ONE MOUNTS

When Zero Matters Most.

Tier One Mounts was built on a simple belief:

If your optic shifts — nothing else matters.

My name is Curtis Warga. I’m a machinist, builder, and the founder of Tier One Mounts. This company didn’t start in a boardroom. It started in the shop — testing, redesigning, refining, and obsessing over the small details most companies ignore.

After years of working with precision machining equipment and seeing how most mounts rely on conventional clamping systems, I knew there was room for improvement. Not marketing improvement. Mechanical improvement.

That’s where V-Lok™ was born.

​

Built, Not Branded.

Tier One isn’t a rebranded overseas mount.

Every design decision is focused on:

• Mechanical repeatability
• Return-to-zero integrity
• Structural rigidity under recoil
• Precision tolerances
• Real-world durability

Our mounts are machined using high-end CNC equipment and held to tight tolerances because performance isn’t negotiable.

If your mount moves, your zero moves.

That’s unacceptable.

​

Why We’re Different

Most companies optimize for:

• Cost
• Speed
• Volume

We optimize for:

• Precision
• Repeatability
• Integrity

V-Lok™ is engineered to create consistent positioning and clamping force across the rail interface — reducing lateral shift and increasing repeatability when properly installed.

Patent pending.

Our Core Values

Precision First – If it isn’t mechanically sound, it doesn’t ship.
Integrity Always – No inflated claims. No gimmicks.
American Machined – Built with intention, not shortcuts.
Performance Over Hype – We let the engineering speak.

​

The Mission

Tier One Mounts exists to build serious equipment for serious shooters.

Whether you're training, competing, hunting, or protecting what matters — your gear should be something you never have to second-guess.

When zero matters most, your mount should be Tier One.
