INNOmount Picatinny rail for Mauser K98 (Without Bulb)

About Picatinny Rail

The Picatinny rail system is meticulously designed with slots spaced at exact intervals of 5.23 mm, ensuring both consistent and versatile use throughout its length. This precision allows for straightforward mounting and guarantees universal compatibility, ensuring that scopr mounts tailored for a Picatinny rail will seamlessly fit, irrespective of the manufacturer or date of production. Favored for its cost-effectiveness, robustness, and dependability, the Picatinny rail is increasingly popular among experts and military users, becoming the top choice in the scope mounts market in recent years.

The Picatinny framework marks a notable enhancement over the traditional Weaver standard. Unlike the Weaver system, which has only a limited number of slots, the Picatinny rail boasts continuous slots across its entirety, providing enhanced flexibility for positioning devices at any desired point. Additionally, the slots on a Weaver rail are slimmer, measuring 3.8 mm, which permits scope mounts made for Weaver rails to be used on a Picatinny rail. However, due to differences in the width of the recoil stoppers, scope mounts specifically designed for the Picatinny rail cannot be accommodated on Weaver rails. This level of compatibility and adaptability makes the Picatinny rail a superior option for a variety of mounting needs.

About the Mauser

Mauser, founded in 1811 in Oberndorf, Germany, started as a royal weapon forge and gained fame with the rotating bolt system. This innovation set the stage for the iconic Mauser Gewehr 98, which influenced global military rifle designs. Post-World War II, the factory was dismantled, but Mauser continued to innovate, later merging into what is now known as Mauser-Werke Oberndorf Waffensysteme GmbH. Today, it operates under the Blaser Group, continuing its legacy with models like the M03, M12, and M18.

About the Mauser 98 Action (Without Bulb)

The Mauser 98 Action (Without Bulb) is a post-WWII modification of the Gewehr 98, designed primarily for hunting. Unlike the wartime model, which featured a bulb for faster reloading with stripper clips, this version has a larger mounting surface on the receiver, making it incompatible with older scope mounts. The rifle has a bolt with three locking lugs—two at the front and one at the rear—and includes gas vents for safety. It features a two-row internal box magazine with a detachable floorplate, holding up to five rounds. Additionally, it uses a non-rotating claw-controlled feed extractor for reliable extraction. The receiver is equipped with a bolt-release lever and a three-position safety catch located at the rear of the bolt on the action tang. The receivers based on Mauser 98 design feature four holes for mounting purposes, two on the front and two on the rear mounting surface. 

Calibres

The original version of the rifle was primarily chambered for 7.92x57mm Mauser caliber.

Design of the Rail

The INNOmount Picatinny rail for Mauser K98 (Without Bulb) is made from high-strength steel, providing greater durability and wear resistance than aluminum. Its solid construction ensures reliable performance, even with frequent use.

The rail has four mounting holes with 6-48 threading, allowing for secure attachment of various optics. It is fastened with four screws, ensuring stability and accuracy under recoil.

Designed for precision shooting and hunting, this rail offers a durable and practical solution for mounting optics.

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 INNOmount Picatinny rail for Mauser K98 (Without Bulb) can be mounted on the following rifles, which share the same mounting standard:

• Mauser M12 (pre-2019)
• Mauser M98 Standard
• Musgrave K98

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.
