Recknagel Picatinny rail without slots

• Blank Picatinny rail body: The slot-free top gives gunsmiths and custom builders a clean starting point for machining a rail to a specific receiver, optic position, or special-purpose mounting project.
• Steel construction: A steel rail body adds rigidity and wear resistance where repeated mounting, recoil stress, or long-term use can quickly show on softer materials.
• 200.00 mm overall length: The long blank format leaves room for custom hole spacing and rail layout, making it suitable for tailored builds rather than one fixed rifle pattern.
• Flat underside: The plain bottom surface is intended for individual fitting, which simplifies adaptation to custom actions, prototype builds, or specialized mounting interfaces.
• Low-profile form: Its compact rail body keeps added height to a minimum, helping preserve a practical optic position once the rail is machined and installed.

About the ERA-TAC Picatinny Rails Series

The ERA-TAC Picatinny Rails series covers a broad range of receiver-mounted rails for hunting, sporting, and tactical rifle setups. Within the manufacturer’s range, these rails serve as the interface between the firearm and modern optics, giving users a stable Picatinny platform for riflescopes, red dots, night vision devices, and other sighting equipment. The series includes both short- and long-action fitments, as well as specialized long rails intended for forward-mounted optics and head-mounted systems.

Across the range, the design philosophy is practical and application-driven. High-grade aluminum and steel variants allow the user to choose between lower weight or greater mass and durability, while some models are offered with 20 MOA inclination for rifles that need additional elevation reserve at longer distances. Aluminum versions use a black anodized finish, while steel models are blued. A defining characteristic of the series is that the rails are designed to screw onto rifle receivers, creating a secure base for precise optic alignment and repeatable mounting.

About the Recknagel Picatinny rail without slots

The Recknagel Picatinny rail without slots is a specialized mounting component intended for custom work rather than direct, model-specific installation. Instead of arriving as a finished rail with transverse slots and pre-defined receiver geometry, this version is built as a 200.00 mm steel blank with a flat underside and no holes. That makes it suitable for gunsmiths, workshops, and experienced builders who need to machine their own hole pattern, contour the base to a particular action, or create a rail for a non-standard application.

Its slot-free upper section is the key feature. By starting with an uncut rail body, the installer can determine slot placement, mounting length, and receiver interface according to the project’s exact needs. This is useful for bespoke rifle builds, unusual receiver dimensions, or applications where standard rail spacing does not provide the required optic position. The steel construction supports this role well, offering the stiffness and surface durability expected from a mounting base that may carry heavier optics or see repeated installation cycles.

With a low-profile build and a compact rail height, the design also helps keep the final optic setup controlled once the rail is machined and fitted. In practice, this product is less about ready-made convenience and more about giving the builder a solid raw platform for a precise, purpose-built Picatinny solution.

About ERA-TAC

ERA-TAC is a brand of Recknagel GmbH & Co. KG, based in Bergrheinfeld, Germany. Recknagel was founded in 1867 in Albrechts near Suhl, and its product range covers accessories for hunting, sport, and tactical firearms.
