Recknagel Rear Ring with Windage Adjustment for Suhl-Claw Mount, 36 mm

• Windage-adjustable rear ring: lets a gunsmith fine-tune lateral alignment within a Suhl claw mount setup, which helps achieve a precise scope position on classic rifles that are individually fitted rather than rail-mounted.
• 36 mm ring diameter: built for optics with a 36 mm main tube, making it suitable for larger traditional riflescopes used on hunting rifles with Suhl claw mounts.
• Steel construction: the steel body supports the rigid, durable character expected from a claw-mount component that is repeatedly fitted, removed and reinstalled over years of field use.
• Made for Suhl claw mounts: this rear ring is designed specifically for Suhl Claw Scope Mounts, preserving the traditional detachable mounting concept valued on classic sporting and combination guns.
• 0 MOA configuration: keeps the mounting geometry neutral, which suits conventional hunting applications where the priority is correct fit, secure lock-up and dependable return to position.

About the Recknagel Suhl-Claw Mounts Series

Recknagel Suhl-Claw Mounts continue a mounting system that was developed by gunsmiths in Suhl in the 1920s. The series belongs to the traditional side of the hunting-optics market, where the priority is not universal rail compatibility but a mount that is individually fitted to a specific rifle and scope. That makes it especially relevant for classic hunting rifles, drillings and other firearms where period-correct styling and detachable scope use matter as much as mechanical function.

The system uses a front hook and rear locking mechanism so the optic can be removed and reattached without tools. When properly fitted, the design is intended to return the scope to the same position after reinstallation, which is one of the reasons Suhl claw mounts remain respected despite their more labor-intensive setup. Recknagel keeps the series available in versions for different scope-tube diameters as well as upper parts for manufacturer-specific rails, so the concept remains practical for both traditional and more specialized optic configurations. Across the series, the emphasis stays on precise fit, secure lock-up and the kind of mechanical workmanship associated with traditional German hunting mounts.

About the Recknagel Rear Ring with Windage Adjustment for Suhl-Claw Mount, 36 mm

The Recknagel Rear Ring with Windage Adjustment for Suhl-Claw Mount, 36 mm is a specialized rear mounting component for traditional detachable scope installations. Its role is especially important in a Suhl claw system because these mounts are fitted to the individual firearm rather than clamped to a standardized rail. In practice, the windage-adjustable rear ring gives the installer a way to correct lateral alignment during fitting, helping the scope sit correctly over the bore while preserving the clean, low-profile character expected from a classic claw mount.

The 36 mm ring diameter makes this version suitable for riflescopes with a larger main tube, while the steel construction matches the durability and mechanical stability normally expected from traditional German mount components. Steel is particularly appropriate here because a claw mount depends on precise engagement surfaces and consistent lock-up over repeated removal and reinstallation. The 0 MOA inclination keeps the setup neutral, which suits conventional hunting use where the focus is on proper fit and dependable zero retention rather than built-in elevation bias.

As a spare part or build component for Suhl Claw Scope Mounts, this rear ring is best understood as a functional precision part rather than a generic ring. It supports the traditional advantage of the Suhl system: a detachable optic arrangement that remains elegant on classic rifles while still allowing careful mechanical adjustment during installation.

About Recknagel

Recknagel is a German manufacturer focused on firearm and riflescope mounting systems, sights and hunting accessories. The company’s roots go back to 1867, when Adolf Recknagel began manufacturing firearm sights in Albrechts near Suhl, Thuringia. That long connection to gunmaking tradition is particularly relevant in products such as Suhl claw mounts, where precise metalworking and fit are central to performance.

Over time, Recknagel expanded its range to include scope mounts, Picatinny rails, sights, triggers, safeties and hunting silencers. The company relocated from Schweinfurt to Bergrheinfeld in 2006, and in 2010 it introduced the ERATAC line for tactical mounts and accessories. In 2022, the business was acquired by Dr. Moritz Fehrer. Across its hunting and tactical products, Recknagel is known for mechanically focused designs that place emphasis on fit, repeatability and durable construction.
