EAW pivot mount, 26 mm, Schultz & Larsen Mod. 84

• Repeatable return to zero: The EAW pivot design lets the riflescope be removed and reattached without shifting point of impact, which is useful when switching between optics or transporting the rifle more compactly.
• 26 mm ring configuration: Built for scopes with a 26 mm main tube, this version provides a dedicated fit that supports secure alignment and stable clamping on classic hunting optics.
• Steel construction: The steel build gives the mount the rigidity and wear resistance needed for long-term use on a hunting rifle, especially where dependable lock-up matters more than minimum weight.
• Rifle-specific lower assembly: Designed for the Schultz & Larsen Model 84, the lower interface matches the action correctly, helping achieve proper fit and consistent mounting geometry.
• Made in Germany: German manufacture reflects EAW’s focus on precise machining and tight tolerances, which matters in a mount where repeatability and exact engagement are central to field performance.

About the EAW Pivot Mounts Series

EAW Pivot Mounts are built around a long-established quick-detachable concept that EAW says it introduced more than 50 years ago. Within the company’s mount range, the pivot system sits as a traditional solution for hunters and rifle owners who want a scope mount that can be removed and reinstalled while maintaining the rifle’s established zero. That repeatable return-to-zero behavior is one of the defining reasons this series remains relevant for classic sporting rifles and long guns.

The series is intended for common rifles and is especially useful where one firearm may be used with more than one optic or aiming device. Adjustable front and rear mount-foot fits are part of the design philosophy, allowing precise engagement between the mount and the rifle-specific base. EAW also offers a lever-operated variant in which the closure is placed on the scope mount rather than on the firearm, with a version developed specifically for break-action guns. Across the series, the emphasis is not on adding bulk or complexity, but on creating a mechanically precise interface that combines quick handling, secure lock-up and repeatable positioning.

About the EAW pivot mount, 26 mm, Schultz & Larsen Mod. 84

This version of the EAW pivot mount is configured for the Schultz & Larsen Model 84 and uses 26 mm rings, making it a practical choice for fitting a traditional riflescope with that tube diameter to a classic hunting rifle. The rifle-specific lower section matters because a pivot mount works best when the base geometry matches the action exactly; that precise fit supports smooth engagement of the pivoting front section and consistent lock-up at the rear.

The use of steel construction gives this mount the solid feel and long-term durability expected from a traditional detachable mounting system. In practice, that helps the mount resist wear at the contact points that are repeatedly engaged when the scope is taken off and put back on. For hunters who alternate between different optics, remove the scope for travel, or want access to the rifle in a different configuration, the pivot system offers flexibility without turning the rifle into a permanent one-optic setup.

Because this model is built around the EAW pivot principle, its main benefit is not speed alone but repeatable positioning. When properly installed, the mount allows the riflescope to be detached and reattached while preserving the established point of impact. That makes it well suited to hunting use where reliability, mechanical consistency and a clean rifle-specific fit are more important than universal compatibility.

About EAW

EAW traces its origins to 1919, when Ernst Apel founded the company in Würzburg, Germany. In 1923, he acquired Elektro-Dental-Werke Frankfurt and changed the EDW brand to EAW, meaning Ernst Apel Würzburg. The company developed and produced its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 mount development and production have been its primary focus.

Today, EAW is known above all for riflescope mounting systems, including pivot, slide-on or roll-off, and claw mounts, while also offering thermal imaging cameras. Production moved from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970, and Ernst Apel GmbH is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. In this product category, EAW’s reputation rests on long experience with mechanically precise, rifle-specific mounting solutions built for repeatable optic installation.
