EAW Rear Pivot Base for Sauer 202 Medium

• Rear pivot base for Sauer 202 Medium: built specifically for the Sauer 202 Medium action, giving the rear foot of an EAW pivot mount a correct, repeatable interface for a secure scope installation.
• Part of the EAW Pivot Mounts system: supports the practical advantage of a detachable hunting optics setup, so the scope can be removed and reattached while preserving the mount geometry.
• Steel construction: the steel body provides the rigidity and wear resistance needed at the locking point of the mount, helping the assembly stay stable through repeated use.
• Compact 25.00 mm format: the short base keeps the mounting solution neat and rifle-specific, adding the required rear support without unnecessary bulk.
• Made in Germany: reflects EAW’s long-standing focus on precision mount manufacturing, which matters when exact fit and consistent alignment are critical.

About the EAW Pivot Mounts Series

EAW Pivot Mounts are built around a long-established detachable mounting concept that EAW introduced more than 50 years ago. The series is intended for hunters and shooters who want a riflescope mount that can be removed when needed and then reattached without changing the rifle’s established setup. That makes the system especially useful for rifles that may alternate between different optics or aiming devices depending on the hunt, the season, or the shooting distance.

A defining characteristic of the series is its adjustable front and rear mount-foot fit. In practical terms, this allows the mount to be matched more precisely to the rifle and upper assembly, supporting a stable, tension-controlled installation. EAW positions the pivot mount family for common rifles and long guns, and the system remains one of the company’s core mount categories. Within the broader EAW lineup, it represents a traditional steel mounting solution focused on repeatability, mechanical precision, and the flexibility that detachable hunting optics require.

About the EAW Rear Pivot Base for Sauer 202 Medium

The EAW Rear Pivot Base for Sauer 202 Medium is the rifle-specific rear mounting element that forms part of an EAW pivot mount installation on the Sauer 202 Medium action. Its job is straightforward but important: it provides the rear interface where the upper mount assembly locks into place, so the optic sits on a correctly matched foundation. On a detachable mount system, that rear contact point has a direct effect on how securely the scope returns into position after removal and reinstallation.

The use of steel is especially relevant here because the rear base is a high-stress component in the mounting system. A steel part resists wear at the locking surfaces and supports long-term dimensional stability, which matters when the mount is opened and closed repeatedly over years of use. The 25.00 mm length keeps the part compact and purpose-built, while the 35.00 g weight adds minimal mass to the rifle. Finished in black, it integrates discreetly with both the firearm and the rest of the mount.

For a Sauer 202 Medium set up with detachable hunting optics, this rear pivot base is not a cosmetic accessory but a functional fit component. It is designed to work within EAW’s pivot-mount architecture, where precise engagement between base and upper assembly is essential for dependable handling and a clean, repeatable mounting solution.

About EAW

EAW traces its origins to 1919, when Ernst Apel founded the company in Würzburg, Germany. The business later became associated with the name EAW after the EDW brand was changed to mean Ernst Apel Würzburg. EAW developed its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 the development and production of riflescope mounts have been its primary focus.

That long specialization is central to the company’s reputation in the sporting optics market. EAW is known for manufacturing pivot mounts, slide-on or roll-off mounts, and claw mounts for riflescopes, with its products aimed at shooters who need precise, mechanically robust mounting solutions. Production moved from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970, and Ernst Apel GmbH is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. Alongside mounts, the company also offers thermal imaging cameras, but its core identity remains closely tied to German-made scope mounting systems.
