LM rail Mounts

VIDEO

The LM rails were a popular mounting solution in the previous decades in Europe. It has since then been almost entirely replaced by other, more modern mounting types. This rail is prismatic in its cross shape, with the angles of the rail placed at a 70° angle – therefore it was also known as the 70° prism rail. At the base it was 15 mm wide. The old rifle scopes had the LM rail attached to them at two points. The first point of securing the scope was on its objective. It was done quite similar to that of the Suhl or German Claw mount. The other point of contact was situated on the rifle scopes main tube, about the same place as it is done today. For this reason the LM rail was thin at one end and thick at the other. There was also a difference of height of both rails and in most cases, custom mounting solutions had to be made to compensate for this difference.

In the past there weren't so many standards. That is why almost every single LM rail was individualy fitted and custom finished to join the rifle scope with its firearm. The results were higher costs and non-interchangeable parts. In order for the rail to stay in its place and not to compromise the shooting accuracy, it was fixed to the rifle with a hole bored through the rail and the rifle, which was later fastened with a screw. It acted as a recoil stop as well. In today's world, there are almost no producers of scopes with LM rail on the market.

Repeatable mounts take all advantages of detachable mounts to a new level. All the advantages of detachable mounts, which are:

Detachable mounts offer possibility to use multiple scopes on one rifle,
enable easy transportation of the scope and the rifle separately,
in an emergency if the scope fails you can immediately detach it and use iron sights are upgraded with,
100% repeatability, which means that you zero all your scopes only once and then you can use them on one rifle in any combination you prefer and as many times as you wish.

Such mounts are ideal for hunting rifles, where you can use the same rifles with different optics on many different types of hunts. The perfect combination of different optics on one rifle can be described in this fashion:

Red dot sight or wide angle riflescope for driven hunts,
1.5-6x42 or similar for stalking,
3-12x56 for low light hunting.

You can add as many different optics to this setup as you wish, since this is the main concept of repeatable mounts. Easy transportation of optics and rifle separately is only an additional bonus.

There are however many different types of repeatable mounts, of which the most common are:

Pivot mounts,
Weaver/Picatinny repeatable mounts,
Repeatable mounts on brand specific mounting solutions: Blaser Saddle mount, Merkel Suhl Tilt-Up mounts, Sauer 404, Sauer 303 , CZ 550, Mauser M03, Steyr original pivot mount, Merkel original pivot mount,

Dentler basis mounts,
Contessa 12 mm mounts.

There are also many other similar repeating mounts.
