Has anyone had any experience with MAK pivot mounts at all. I am looking at a two piece pivot mount for a double, but being a pivot mount they need to be made properly to achieve repeatable results.
Does anyone know anything about MAK mounts and if they are made well, or just a cheaper option?
 
I have one MAK mount that fits the Recknagel type pivot mount hole in the rib of my Merkel double rifle. It holds a Docter / Noblex optic red dot reflex sight. The mount seems well built, fit and finish are good, repeatability and precision are good. I'm happy with it.

I had MaKlassic pivot mounts installed on my CZ 550 300 WSM and am happy with them. They look well built. On my other rifles, Mauser K98 actions and Sauer 80 I had Ziegler claw mounts installed, but Ziegler doesn't make them for the CZ 550.
 
Very high quality in my experience, in the same class of EAW, very similar to them also
 
Good to see all the positive replies.
I ended up ordering a Rechnagel one piece, with Zeiss rail.
The only reason I chose the Rechnagel over the MAK, was because my gunsmith had fitted both many times, and he preferred the Rechnagel.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
