Steyr Arms 2 Piece Base for Gen II Pivot Rings

• Two-piece pivot-mount interface: This base is made for Steyr Original Pivot Scope Mounts, giving compatible rifles the correct foundation for a detachable optic setup that can be removed and reattached with the repeatable positioning expected from a pivot system.
• Broad rifle compatibility: It fits a wide range of Steyr SM 12, CL II, Mannlicher Classic and Pro Hunter variants, making it a practical factory-style solution for owners who want to add original Steyr pivot rings without adapting the rifle to a different mounting standard.
• 0 MOA inclination: The 0 MOA configuration keeps the optic aligned for general hunting and sporting use, simplifying scope setup when extra built-in cant is not required.
• Factory-matched design: As a Steyr Arms mount component made in Germany, it is intended to match the geometry of compatible Steyr actions and original pivot mounts, which helps preserve secure fit and clean integration on the rifle.
• Low-profile black finish: The black finish gives the base a discreet appearance that blends naturally with modern hunting rifles and mounted optics while keeping the installation visually unobtrusive.

About the Steyr Arms Mounts Series

Steyr Arms Mounts are purpose-built rifle accessories designed to attach optical sights to compatible STEYR ARMS rifles. Within the company’s accessory range, the series focuses on practical mounting solutions that follow the same rifle-specific approach as Steyr’s firearms: secure fit, straightforward handling and compatibility with established hunting optics formats. The family includes systems intended for conventional scope mounting as well as modular concepts such as the Monobloc Flex Mount, which uses a single base with interchangeable upper sections.

That modular approach shows the series philosophy clearly. STEYR offers upper parts for 30 mm rings as well as interfaces for Zeiss and Swarovski rails, allowing the mount system to adapt to different optic bodies without changing the whole platform. The range also includes solutions that work with a quick-detach system, which is especially relevant for hunters who alternate between day optics or remove a scope for transport. Across the series, the emphasis is on rifle-specific mounting geometry rather than universal compromise, so the mounts integrate cleanly with compatible Steyr rifles and support dependable optic positioning in field use.

About the Steyr Arms 2 Piece Base for Gen II Pivot Rings

The Steyr Arms 2 Piece Base for Gen II Pivot Rings is a rifle-specific mounting solution for shooters who want to equip compatible Steyr rifles with the company’s original Gen II pivot-mount system. Its role is straightforward but important: it provides the lower interface between the rifle and the detachable pivot rings, creating the correct foundation for a scope setup that can be mounted in a clean, traditional hunting configuration. Because it is designed around Steyr rifle geometry rather than a generic rail standard, it suits owners who prefer an original-style installation on rifles such as the SM 12, CL II, Mannlicher Classic and selected Pro Hunter models.

The two-piece layout keeps the action area open and preserves the streamlined look often preferred on hunting rifles. In practical use, that style of base supports a compact, integrated mounting arrangement while remaining compatible with Steyr Original Pivot Scope Mounts. The specified 0 MOA inclination makes it appropriate for standard zeroing distances and general sporting or hunting applications where additional built-in elevation is unnecessary. Finished in black and made in Germany, this base is aimed at shooters who want a factory-matched mounting component that prioritises fit, compatibility and a tidy rifle profile over a universal one-size-fits-all approach.

About Steyr Arms

Steyr Arms was founded by Josef and Franz Werndl on April 16, 1864, in Oberletten, Austria. The company is known for manufacturing hunting, sporting and precision rifles, alongside pistols and firearms for police and military use. Its long history in shoulder-fired firearms is especially relevant in the hunting segment, where Steyr has built a reputation for rifle design that combines practical field handling with distinctive engineering solutions.

Several products mark the company’s place in modern firearms history, including the STEYR AUG, adopted by the Austrian Federal Army in 1977 as the StG 77, and the SSG 69, introduced in the late 1960s as a precision rifle with a compound stock. The company’s headquarters, research and development, and production are in Kleinraming, Austria. Steyr changed its name from STEYR MANNLICHER to STEYR ARMS on January 1, 2019, continuing a long-established Austrian firearms tradition under its current brand identity.
