AimShot has introduced a new line of quick release mounts that are compatible with M-LOK or KeyMod. This family of mounts includes Picatinny rails of different sizes, as well as bipod and flashlight specific mounts. There are built-in buttons on either side of these mounts squeezing which allows attaching them to or unlocking from the handguard in a matter of seconds and without a use of tools.
The new AimShot quick release mounts are made of 6061-T6 aluminum and have a black anodized finish. The fasteners are made of steel. It is possible to adjust them to different handguard thicknesses for a perfect fit. I saw these mounts at SHOT Show 2020 and they look to be quite well made. In fact, they are full-auto rated. Here is a video showing how to use these mounts.
The following models of AimShot quick release mounts are currently available for each of the accessory mounting systems.

Quick release mounts are always useful accessories if they are robust enough to firmly attach to the rail and retain their strength over the time. For example, when it comes to bipods, in many situations (e.g. hunting trips) you may not necessarily want a bipod always attached to the gun (not to make the gun heavier and bulkier with a tendency to snag on everything possible) but at the same time, you may want to be able to attach the bipod as quickly as possible whenever you actually need it.
