MAKlassic Pivot upper parts, Mauser M 12, 26 mm

• 26 mm scope interface: Built for 25.4 mm (1 inch) scope tubes, these upper parts provide a secure fit for classic hunting optics while keeping the installation matched to a widely used tube size.
• Steel construction: The steel build gives the mount the rigidity needed to hold zero under repeated recoil and regular field use, which matters on a hunting rifle that may be carried and shot in changing conditions.
• Adjustable windage: With windage adjustment built into the mount, alignment can be fine-tuned during setup, helping center the optic more precisely and preserving more of the riflescope’s internal adjustment range.
• Low-profile geometry: A 14.00 mm BH. and 27.00 mm H. configuration helps keep the riflescope close to the bore, supporting a more natural cheek weld and steadier sight picture.
• Pivot-mount compatibility: Designed for the MAKlassic pivot system and compatible with listed pivot bases for the Mauser M12 (pre-2019) and related actions, these upper parts suit rifles where a traditional detachable mount is preferred.

About the MAKlassic Series

MAKlassic is MAK’s traditional pivot-mount family, documented in the company’s catalogues by 2019 and built around rifle-specific configurations rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. The series is intended for hunters and shooters who want the familiar handling of a classic detachable mount, especially on sporting rifles and break-action firearms where a clean, low installation remains important.

Within the range, two-piece pivot mounts are offered in versions for different rifle models, optic interfaces, and mounting heights. The series includes variants with rotating locks and lever locks, along with configurations for both scope tubes and optic rails. That approach allows the mount to be matched more closely to the rifle action and the optic being used, instead of forcing unnecessary compromise in height or fit. A defining characteristic of the MAKlassic line is this model-specific design philosophy, with options for different mount heights and front-foot offsets to suit practical hunting setups.

About the MAKlassic Pivot upper parts, Mauser M 12, 26 mm

The MAKlassic Pivot upper parts for the Mauser M 12 are made for shooters who want to pair a classic 25.4 mm (1 inch) riflescope with a traditional pivot-mount arrangement on a compatible Mauser-pattern platform. As the upper portion of the mount, this component is the part that interfaces directly with the scope tube, so correct diameter and stable clamping matter as much as the base fit below. In practice, that makes this version a sensible choice for conventional hunting optics where compact dimensions and dependable return to position are more important than oversized tactical hardware.

The use of steel construction gives the mount the stiffness and wear resistance expected from a recoil-bearing interface, while the black finish keeps the appearance discreet on a sporting rifle. Its 0 MOA inclination suits general-purpose zeroing without adding built-in cant, which is often the preferred setup for ordinary hunting distances. The inclusion of adjustable windage is especially useful during installation, because it allows the optic to be aligned more precisely with the rifle and can help preserve internal turret travel for later sighting corrections.

With a 14.00 mm BH. and 27.00 mm H., this mount is configured to keep the optic in a controlled, practical position over the action. A lower, well-matched mounting height usually improves head position, speeds up sight acquisition, and helps the rifle retain the balanced feel expected from a classic bolt-action hunting setup.
