Recknagel UNIVERSAL-Interface Aluminum Scope Ring. 56mm

• UNIVERSAL interface: The integrated top interface accepts compatible Picatinny rails and adapter plates, turning a scope ring into a compact mounting point for a red dot sight or other optical accessory without adding a separate base.
• 56 mm objective fit: This ring is sized for scopes with a 56 mm objective, making it a practical solution for larger hunting optics where accessory mounting space on the rifle itself may be limited.
• Freely selectable interface position: The interface can be oriented around the scope tube during installation, which helps place an attached accessory where it clears the rifle, matches the shooter’s preferred angle, and stays easy to reach.
• High-grade aluminum construction: The aluminum body keeps weight to just 50.00 g, so it adds useful mounting capability with minimal effect on the balance of the rifle and scope.
• Hard-anodized matte black finish: The durable black surface helps resist wear from field use and handling while keeping reflections low on hunting and tactical optics setups.

About the Recknagel Accesories Series

Recknagel Accesories covers the brand’s supporting hardware for hunting firearms, sporting rifles, and workshop use, with a strong focus on practical mounting solutions. Within that range, the aluminum scope rings with UNIVERSAL interface are designed for shooters who need to add accessories directly to a riflescope rather than to the rifle action or handguard. This makes the series especially relevant where space is limited or where the accessory needs to sit close to the optic.

A defining feature of the series is the UNIVERSAL interface, which allows compatible Picatinny rails and adapters to be attached to the ring. Because the interface position can be chosen during installation, the setup can be tailored to the rifle, the scope shape, and the intended accessory. The series includes versions for both objective and center-tube mounting, giving it flexibility across different scope designs. In practical terms, these accessories are built for hunters and gunsmiths who want a compact, mechanically simple way to mount a red dot sight or other add-on equipment while keeping the overall system tidy and close to the optic.

About the Recknagel UNIVERSAL-Interface Aluminum Scope Ring. 56mm

The Recknagel UNIVERSAL-Interface Aluminum Scope Ring. 56mm is a purpose-built accessory ring for riflescopes with a 56 mm objective, created for shooters who want to add a secondary aiming or accessory platform directly to the optic. Instead of relying on extra rail space on the firearm, this ring provides a compact mounting point on the scope itself, which is especially useful on hunting rifles with limited receiver space or on setups where a piggyback red dot sight is preferred.

Its key feature is the UNIVERSAL interface on the top of the ring. This interface is intended for compatible ERA-TAC Universal Interface components, including top bases and rails that can carry red dot sights or other accessories. Because the radial position can be selected during installation, the accessory can be placed at the most practical angle for clearance, access, and sight acquisition. That matters in real use: a shooter can position a compact reflex sight where it is fast to pick up without interfering with the riflescope’s controls or the rifle’s bolt operation.

The ring body is made from aluminium, which keeps the unit light at 50.00 g while still suiting field use on working rifles. The matte black finish fits naturally with modern hunting optics and tactical optics setups. For shooters building a modular riflescope system, this ring offers a clean way to add capability without the bulk of a separate bridge or side mount.

About Recknagel

Recknagel is a German manufacturer with roots going back to 1867, when Adolf Recknagel began producing firearm sights in Albrechts near Suhl, Thuringia. The company specializes in mounting systems, sights, and hunting accessories, with a product range that includes scope mounts, Picatinny rails, triggers, safeties, and silencers. This long focus on firearm hardware is why the brand is closely associated with precise mechanical components for hunting and sporting rifles.

In more recent years, Recknagel expanded its tactical offering with the launch of the ERATAC line in 2010, bringing dedicated mounts and accessories to professional and sporting users who need robust interface systems. The company later added lightweight hunting silencers in 2016. For products such as scope rings and mounting accessories, Recknagel’s reputation rests on practical engineering, compatibility across many rifle platforms, and manufacturing in Germany.
