I picked up the mount when I was in Hong Kong. It's branded under "Bomber Airsoft" and it's a very well built unit - much more impressive than Huang's twist mount. I also got the magnifier from Huang and like you, I wasn't impressed with the twist mount at all. The height was too low (I corrected it with a QD riser mount), it was wobbly and machining on it wasn't done well. Tolerances were extremely wide at best.

Pictures will come soon... just waiting for some items to clear customs...

You're right, it's not very "CQB", and this side-project wasn't intended to be at all. I only put that name in the title because of the laser markings on the receiver. I took it out as it wasn't suitable.
This build is more of a multi-purpose type build, good for close/medium/long range. The flip-to-side mount allows that level of maneuverability and the quick detach rebar cutter could hint at a door kicker role as well.
The original offspring of this project is my "CQB" build - this 13.5" project was just an afterthought as the Troy rails are relatively inexpensive. For what you pay, you get a lot. I thought it might be fun to fiddle with something like this.
