Recknagel UNIVERSAL-Interface Aluminum Scope Ring. 62mm

• UNIVERSAL interface: The top interface accepts matching Picatinny rails and adapter plates, giving a riflescope a stable mounting point for red dot sights or other optical accessories without changing the main scope setup.
• Freely selectable mounting position: The interface can be oriented as needed during installation, which helps place an accessory where it is easiest to see and reach while keeping the rifle compact.
• 62 mm objective fit: This ring is made for larger scope objective housings, creating a secure attachment point on optics that cannot use a center-tube ring in the same way.
• Aluminium construction: The lightweight body adds only 50.00 g, so it expands mounting options without adding unnecessary front-end weight to a hunting or sporting rifle.
• Hard-use finish: The matte black anodized aluminum construction is suited to field use, helping the ring resist wear while keeping reflections low around the optic.

About the Recknagel Accesories Series

The Recknagel Accesories series covers practical add-on components for hunting firearms and workshop use, with a strong focus on mounting flexibility and clean mechanical integration. Within this range, the UNIVERSAL interface system is designed for shooters who want to add accessories to a riflescope without replacing the primary optic mount. Instead of fixing the accessory position in one preset orientation, the ring allows the attachment point around the scope tube to be chosen during installation, which is useful when balancing sight line, clearance and handling.

One of the distinguishing elements of this family is its modular approach. Aluminum scope rings with the UNIVERSAL interface are intended to work with Picatinny rails and dedicated adapters, so the same basic mounting concept can support different accessory layouts. In practice, that makes the series relevant for hunters and sporting shooters who need a compact way to carry a secondary sight or other optic-related equipment. The design philosophy is straightforward: low added weight, secure attachment and adaptable positioning, with versions intended for mounting on either the objective section or the center tube of a scope depending on the optic and available space.

About the Recknagel UNIVERSAL-Interface Aluminum Scope Ring. 62mm

The Recknagel UNIVERSAL-Interface Aluminum Scope Ring. 62mm is a scope-mounted accessory ring made for optics with a 62 mm objective diameter. Its role is not to hold the riflescope on the rifle, but to create a secure mounting point on the scope itself for compatible UNIVERSAL-interface top parts. That makes it especially useful when a shooter wants to add a compact red dot sight or another accessory above the optic while keeping the main riflescope in place.

The practical advantage of this design is flexibility. The UNIVERSAL interface can be positioned around the scope during installation, so the accessory can be placed where it best suits the rifle’s handling and the shooter’s preferred sight picture. This is valuable on rifles where bolt clearance, turret access or overall balance matter just as much as the accessory itself. Because the ring is made from aluminium and weighs only 50.00 g, it adds capability without noticeably burdening the optic.

Its black finish and compact form help it blend into the riflescope rather than turning the setup into a bulky add-on. As part of a modular mounting system, this ring is best suited to users who want a tidy and mechanically simple way to expand a riflescope for hunting optics or sporting rifle applications. The result is a mounting accessory that emphasizes adaptable placement, low weight and compatibility with the ERA-TAC Universal Interface.

About Recknagel

Recknagel is a German manufacturer of 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 built its reputation around precise mechanical components for sporting and hunting firearms, with a product range that includes scope mounts, Picatinny rails, firearm sights, triggers, safeties and hunting silencers.

A key part of the modern lineup is the ERATAC line, introduced in 2010 for tactical mounts and accessories. Recknagel later expanded its hunting offering with lightweight silencers in 2016, and the company entered a new phase when Dr. Moritz Fehrer acquired Recknagel in 2022. Today, the brand remains closely associated with German-made mounting solutions and accessory systems built for reliable fit, repeatable alignment and practical field use.
