EAW Steel Picatinny rail, Heckler & Koch SLB 2000 Product description

About Picatinny Rail

The Picatinny rail system is engineered with slots spaced precisely 5.23 mm apart, ensuring consistent and versatile usage along its entire length. This design allows for easy mounting and universal compatibility, meaning accessories designed for a Picatinny rail will fit perfectly, regardless of the manufacturer or production date. Valued for its affordability, durability, and reliability, the Picatinny rail has become a preferred choice among professionals and military personnel, dominating the scope mounts market in recent years.

The Picatinny design represents a significant improvement over the older Weaver standard. While the Weaver system has only a few predetermined slots, the Picatinny rail features continuous slots across its surface, offering greater flexibility for mounting devices at any location. Additionally, the slots on a Weaver rail are narrower, at 3.8 mm, which means scope mounts designed for Weaver rails can fit on a Picatinny rail. However, mounts specifically made for Picatinny rails do not fit on Weaver rails due to the size difference of recoil stoppers. This compatibility and versatility position the Picatinny rail as a superior mounting solution for various applications.

About the EAW

Founded in 1919, EAW is Germany's oldest active manufacturer of scope mounts and is globally recognized for its innovative, high-quality scope mounts. The company offers an array of Picatinny rails, meticulously designed to ensure a seamless integration with various rifle models. These rails provide a secure and precise fit, optimizing the positioning of optical devices. Renowned for their durability and reliability, EAW's Picatinny rails are highly favored by both professionals and firearms enthusiasts. Despite their superior quality, these mounts come at a higher cost.

About the Heckler & Koch

Heckler & Koch, known as H&K, was established in 1949 in Oberndorf, Germany. By 1959, the G3 battle rifle, developed from the CETME rifle, became standard for the German Bundeswehr. H&K is known for innovations like the MP5 submachine gun and has produced a variety of firearms for military, law enforcement, and civilian use. In 2019 CDE acquired a controlling stake in H&K, underlining its enduring influence in the firearms industry.

About the SLB 2000

The H&K SLB 2000 is a semi-automatic rifle known for its gas-operated action and a rotary bolting head. It features a quick change barrel system for different calibers, enhancing its versatility. The upper receiver of the SLB 2000 is constructed from aluminum, while the lower receiver is made from polymer. This model accepts 2, 5, and 10-round detachable magazines and is designed with a paddle release for ambidextrous use. A notable safety feature is the double safety switch mounted on the back, showing a white dot for 'safe' and a red dot for 'fire.' The rifle includes a V-shaped rear sight adjustable for windage and a pinned front blade sight for precise aiming. Importantly, the SLB 2000 has five holes on the top of the receiver specifically for scope mounting.

Design of the Rail

The EAW Steel Picatinny rail, Heckler & Koch SLB 2000, is crafted from steel, providing exceptional hardness and durability compared to aluminum. This ensures a higher degree of repeatability with minimal wear over time. The rail features 16 slots and 4 mounting holes, all secured with 6-48 threading. A unique central channel allows the simultaneous use of the rifle's iron sights, providing a reliable backup option without needing to remove the rail when there is nothing mounted on it. This Picatinny rail is firmly attached to the rifle with 4 screws, ensuring a secure and stable mount.

This rail can also be mounted on:

Usually, a Picatinny rail can be mounted on multiple different rifles if they share the same mounting surface, which we commonly refer to as the mounting standard. The EAW Steel Picatinny rail, Heckler & Koch SLB 2000 can be mounted on the following rifles, which share the same mounting standard:

  • Anschutz 1780
  • Anschutz 1781
  • Haenel SLB 2000+
  • Merkel SR 1 Basic

Mounting Instructions

Clean the rifle's receiver thoroughly with a cleaning fluid, such as acetone, to remove all stains, grease, and oil. Once the surface is clean and dry, verify that the screws fit both the rail and the receiver holes. Before mounting the rail, apply a minimal amount of thread-locking fluid (278 or 648) to the screws, avoiding any contact with the mounting holes. Carefully clean any excess fluid around the rail using the cleaning fluid. Using a torque driver, tighten the screws to the appropriate torque (up to 3 Nm/26.5 in-lbs). If you require any mounting tools, you can find them on our Rifle Scope Mounting Tools page.
