Steyr Arms Pivot Mount without Base Gen 2, 40 mm

• Original STEYR pivot interface: This Gen 2 mount is made to work with Steyr Original Pivot Scope Mounts, giving a repeatable detachable setup that lets the optic come off and go back on without changing the rifle’s handling.
• 40 mm ring size: The 40 mm configuration is intended for compatible optics that require this diameter, providing a secure mechanical fit and proper support across the scope body.
• 0 MOA alignment: With 0 MOA inclination, the mount keeps the optic in a neutral position, which suits general hunting and sporting rifle setups where no built-in cant is required.
• Gen 2 detachable design: The second-generation pivot format supports fast removal and reattachment of the scope, which is useful when switching optics, transporting the rifle, or accessing the action more easily.
• Austrian-made construction: Made in Austria, this mount follows the same practical design approach associated with STEYR rifle accessories, with a focus on precise fit and dependable field use.

About the Steyr Arms Mounts Series

Steyr Arms Mounts are purpose-built accessories for attaching optics to compatible STEYR rifles. Within the company’s accessory range, the series is aimed at shooters who want a mounting solution matched to the geometry and handling of the rifle rather than a generic one-size-fits-all system. That makes the line especially relevant for hunting rifles and sporting rifles where secure fit, repeatable positioning, and straightforward handling matter as much as the optic itself.

The series includes solutions built around interchangeable upper sections and quick-detach concepts, reflecting STEYR’s practical approach to rifle setup. In use, that means the mount is not just a way to hold an optic in place; it is part of a system designed around compatibility with specific rifles and sight formats. Across the range, the emphasis is on clean integration, reliable attachment, and the flexibility to configure the rifle for different optics. For shooters using traditional scope rings or rail-based options, the series gives a structured way to build an optic setup that remains consistent with the rifle’s original design.

About the Steyr Arms Pivot Mount without Base Gen 2, 40 mm

The Steyr Arms Pivot Mount without Base Gen 2, 40 mm is a detachable scope-mount component intended for rifles that use Steyr Original Pivot Scope Mounts. As a version supplied without the base, it is suited to users who already have the lower interface on the rifle and need the upper mounting section for a compatible optic. That makes it a practical choice for replacing an existing upper, building a second optic setup, or configuring a rifle for a specific scope diameter.

The defining feature of this model is its 40 mm ring format. On a compatible optic, that diameter determines how securely the scope is supported and how well the mount matches the tube or body section it is designed to clamp. In practical use, correct fit helps maintain alignment, reduces unnecessary stress on the optic, and supports consistent positioning after repeated removal and reattachment.

Its Gen 2 pivot design is built around the familiar swing-on detachable concept used on STEYR rifles. This style of mount is valued for quick handling in the field: the optic can be removed for transport, maintenance, or a change of setup, then reinstalled with the same mechanical engagement points. The 0 MOA inclination keeps the optic in a neutral mounting position, which suits conventional hunting and sporting applications. Finished in black and made in Austria, the mount is a straightforward factory-style solution for shooters who want a rifle-and-optic combination that remains tidy, functional, and consistent with the original STEYR system.

About Steyr Arms

Steyr Arms traces its origins to April 16, 1864, when Josef and Franz Werndl founded the company in Oberletten, Austria. Today, the company’s headquarters, research and development, and production are located in Kleinraming, Austria. The business adopted the name STEYR ARMS on January 1, 2019, continuing a long Austrian firearms tradition under a modern brand identity.

STEYR ARMS manufactures hunting, sporting, and precision rifles, as well as pistols and firearms for police and military use. Its history includes several well-known designs, 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. In 2024, RSBC acquired 100% of STEYR ARMS. This background is relevant to the company’s mounting products as well: the accessory range is shaped by long experience in building complete rifle systems rather than standalone components.
