Recknagel GK Pivot upper parts, Remington Seven, 36 mm

• Steel upper parts: The steel construction gives this pivot-mount upper assembly the rigidity needed for a secure scope hold and consistent alignment under recoil, which matters on hunting rifles that are carried often and shot in changing conditions.
• 36 mm ring interface: Built for 36 mm scope tubes, these upper parts let larger-tube optics sit in a dedicated mount geometry instead of relying on adapters, helping preserve fit, clamping security, and repeatable positioning.
• Adjustable windage: The integrated windage adjustment helps center the optic mechanically in the mount, reducing the need for excessive reticle correction and keeping more internal scope adjustment available for zeroing.
• Pivot-mount design: As part of a GK pivot mount setup for the Remington Seven, this upper assembly supports the practical advantage of a detachable hunting optic that can be removed and refitted with the speed and handling expected from a swing mount.
• Low-profile geometry: With a BH height of 18.50 mm and H height of 36.50 mm, the mount is configured to keep the optic at a controlled height above the action, supporting a stable cheek weld and natural sight alignment.

About the Recknagel Pivot Mount Series

Recknagel pivot mounts are designed for hunters who want a detachable riflescope mounting system without giving up the precise fit expected from a steel hunting mount. In Recknagel’s lineup, these mounts sit firmly in the traditional European hunting category, where repeatable removal and reinstallation matter for rifles that may be used with different optics or carried with the scope removed. The system combines a solid mechanical lock-up with the practical handling of a swing mount, making it well suited to classic bolt-action rifles and other sporting firearms.

A defining trait of the series is its focus on model-specific fit, with upper parts and bases matched to the rifle and optic interface rather than treated as generic hardware. That approach helps maintain alignment, keeps the scope positioned correctly over the action, and supports dependable zero retention in normal field use. Across the series, steel construction, careful machining, and compact proportions reflect a design philosophy centered on durability, repeatability, and clean integration with hunting rifles rather than tactical bulk or unnecessary complexity.

About the Recknagel GK Pivot upper parts, Remington Seven, 36 mm

The Recknagel GK Pivot upper parts for the Remington Seven are the optic-side half of a dedicated swing-mount setup, made for rifles using the corresponding Recknagel pivot bases. This version is configured for a 36 mm scope tube, making it relevant for larger main-tube hunting optics that need a secure, correctly sized ring interface. Because the upper parts are matched to the pivot system and rifle platform, they support a neater and more stable installation than improvised ring solutions.

The use of steel is especially important in this category. On a detachable hunting mount, rigidity is not only about strength; it also helps the mount return to the same position consistently after removal and refitting. That is valuable for hunters who transport the rifle with the scope removed, switch optics between outings, or simply want the practical convenience of a pivot mount on a compact rifle such as the Remington Seven.

This model also includes adjustable windage, which gives the installer more control when aligning the scope to the rifle. In practice, that can reduce the amount of internal correction needed from the riflescope itself, leaving more adjustment range available where it is useful. The 0 MOA inclination keeps the setup neutral, which suits general hunting use where a straightforward zero is more important than built-in cant for extreme-distance shooting. Finished in black, the mount maintains a restrained appearance that fits traditional sporting rifles.

About Recknagel

Recknagel is a German manufacturer focused on firearm and riflescope mounting systems, sights, and hunting accessories. The company’s history began in 1867, when Adolf Recknagel started manufacturing firearm sights in Albrechts near Suhl, Thuringia. Over time, the brand expanded into a broad range of gun-related components, including scope mounts, Picatinny rails, triggers, safeties, and hunting silencers, while maintaining a strong association with precision mounting solutions.

The company relocated from Schweinfurt to Bergrheinfeld in 2006, and in 2010 it introduced the ERATAC line for tactical mounts and accessories. In 2022, Recknagel was acquired by Dr. Moritz Fehrer. For products such as hunting scope mounts, Recknagel’s reputation rests on long-standing German manufacturing experience and a product range that covers both traditional hunting applications and more modern sporting or tactical requirements.
