EAW Adapter for dovetail Zeiss Compact-Point

• 11 mm dovetail fit: This adapter is built for rifles with an 11 mm prism rail, giving a direct way to mount a Zeiss Compact-Point without adding unnecessary height or complexity.
• Zeiss Compact-Point interface: The dedicated top profile matches the Zeiss Compact-Point, helping maintain a secure, repeatable connection for a compact red dot sight on hunting or small-caliber rifles.
• Steel construction: A steel body adds rigidity and wear resistance, which matters on a mount that must hold alignment through repeated installation, transport, and field use.
• 0 MOA inclination: With 0 MOA built in, the adapter keeps the sight in a neutral position that suits close- to medium-range red-dot applications where a simple, straightforward zero is preferred.
• Low-profile fixed design: The non-adjustable format keeps the setup mechanically simple, reducing extra moving parts and making it well suited to users who want a stable, dedicated mounting solution.

About the EAW Adapters for Red Dot sights Series

EAW Adapters for Red Dot sights are designed to fit compact reflex sights to a wide variety of firearm mounting systems. Within the EAW lineup, this series serves shooters who want the speed of a red dot while keeping a mounting solution matched to the rifle’s existing base or dovetail. The range covers several mounting formats, including pivot mount, dovetail, Blaser, Picatinny/Weaver, claw mount, and form ring configurations, which makes the series relevant across both classic European hunting rifles and more modern setups.

EAW catalogs this family for popular sight footprints such as Docter-Sight, Aimpoint Micro, and Zeiss Compact-Point. In the dovetail branch alone, variants are offered for 11 mm, 14.5 mm, 16.5 mm, and BRNO ZKK prism dimensions, while some versions are also available with adjustable levers. The series is defined by a practical, mechanical approach: adapt the sight to the rifle cleanly, keep the interface specific to the optic, and preserve a compact overall profile. That makes these adapters especially suitable for hunting rifles, rimfire rifles, and other firearms where a lightweight red-dot sight is preferred for fast target acquisition.

About the EAW Adapter for dovetail Zeiss Compact-Point

The EAW Adapter for dovetail Zeiss Compact-Point is a fixed adapter made for rifles with an 11 mm dovetail and a Zeiss Compact-Point sight. Its role is straightforward but important: it provides the correct interface between a compact reflex sight and a prism-equipped rifle without relying on a universal plate system. That dedicated fit is useful when a shooter wants a tidy installation with minimal added bulk.

Because this model uses a 0 MOA inclination, it keeps the optic aligned in a neutral mounting position that suits the normal working distances of a red dot sight. On rifles used for fast shots, training, or short-range hunting applications, that helps keep setup simple and intuitive. The steel construction supports long-term durability and gives the mount the stiffness needed to hold the sight securely under regular field handling.

This adapter is also a practical match for rifles that already use an 11 mm prism rather than a Picatinny rail. Instead of changing the rifle’s base system, it allows the user to fit a Zeiss Compact-Point directly to the existing dovetail. The result is a compact mounting solution that favors reliability, low added height, and a clean mechanical layout. With no adjustable windage built into the mount, the design stays simple and robust, leaving sight alignment to the optic’s own adjustment system.

About EAW

EAW was founded by Ernst Apel in Würzburg, Germany, in 1919. The company produced its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 the development and production of scope mounts have been its main focus. Over time, EAW became closely associated with German-made mounting solutions for hunting and sporting rifles, especially systems built around precise mechanical fit and repeatable installation.

The company moved production from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970, and Ernst Apel GmbH is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. EAW is known for making pivot, slide-on or roll-off, and claw mounts for riflescopes, and it has expanded its catalog to include red-dot adapters and thermal imaging products. That background is directly relevant here: EAW’s expertise lies in building mounting systems that connect optics to firearms with a strong emphasis on compatibility, mechanical durability, and application-specific design.
