EAW pivot mount, LM rail, Mauser 2000, 3000

• Pivot design: The mount lets the optic be removed and reattached with repeatable positioning, which is useful when switching between sights or transporting the rifle without giving up a consistent zero.
• LM rail interface: Built for scopes with an LM rail, this version provides a secure, aligned connection without separate rings, helping keep the setup compact and mechanically straightforward.
• Steel construction: A steel build gives the mount the rigidity and wear resistance needed for repeated attachment cycles and long-term use on hunting rifles.
• Rifle-specific fit: This model is made for the Mauser 2000 and Mauser 3000 platform, giving a dedicated fit instead of a universal compromise.
• Made in Germany: German manufacture reflects EAW’s long focus on precision mounting systems, which matters in a component that must return to position reliably after removal.

About the EAW Pivot Mounts Series

EAW Pivot Mounts are the company’s long-established quick-detachable mounting system for sporting rifles and other common long guns. EAW states that it introduced this pivot-mount concept more than 50 years ago, and the design remains closely associated with the brand’s approach to repeatable scope mounting. The key idea behind the series is practical rather than decorative: the optic can be removed and reattached without changing the point of impact, which is valuable for transport, maintenance, or changing to a second sighting setup.

The series is built around adjustable front and rear mount-foot fits, allowing careful installation and precise engagement between the mount and the firearm. Across the range, EAW offers versions for many rifle models and several top-interface formats, so the system can be matched to different scope bodies and rails. In the field, that makes the pivot series especially relevant for hunters who want a traditional, low-profile mounting solution with repeatable return-to-zero behavior. EAW also offers a lever-operated variant for break-action firearms, showing that the series is designed around rifle-specific mechanical requirements rather than a one-size-fits-all layout.

About the EAW pivot mount, LM rail, Mauser 2000, 3000

This EAW pivot mount is configured for an LM rail scope and is made specifically for the Mauser 2000 and Mauser 3000. That combination makes it a dedicated solution for shooters who want the clean profile of a rail-mounted optic together with the practical advantages of a detachable pivot system. Because the interface is built around the rail rather than separate scope rings, the setup stays mechanically simple and well aligned, which is useful when fitting premium hunting optics with an integral rail.

The main benefit of this mount is not only that the scope can be removed, but that it can be put back on the rifle in a repeatable way. For a hunting rifle, that matters when the optic is taken off for travel, storage, cleaning, or replacement with another sighting device. The pivot format also suits users who value access to the rifle’s action and a mounting system with a long-established mechanical layout.

Steel construction gives this model the strength and stiffness expected from a traditional all-metal mount, helping it resist wear at the contact points over many attachment cycles. As part of the EAW system, it also benefits from the brand’s rifle-specific design philosophy, where the mount is matched to the firearm rather than adapted loosely across many actions. For a Mauser 2000 or 3000 owner using an LM rail riflescope mount, this results in a solid, purpose-built mounting solution for hunting optics.

About EAW

EAW was founded by Ernst Apel in 1919 in Würzburg, Germany. The company name comes from Ernst Apel Würzburg, adopted after Ernst Apel acquired Elektro-Dental-Werke Frankfurt in 1923 and changed the EDW brand to EAW. The company developed and produced its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 mount development and production have been its primary focus.

Today, EAW is known for German-made mounting systems for sporting and tactical firearms, including pivot mounts, slide-on or roll-off mounts, and claw mounts. The company later moved production from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970, and Ernst Apel GmbH is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. Alongside mounts, EAW also offers thermal imaging cameras, but its reputation in this category is built on long experience in precise, rifle-specific scope mounting solutions.
