The manufacturing quality is precise and milled for a perfect fit. It was a breeze to install. I put a red laser dot scope on the rifle and I zeroed-in at 100 yards with extreme accuracy. It is a game changer for me. Review: I'm really impressed - I have two Swedish Mausers. A 1904 Carl Gustav 1896 and a 1942 Husqvarna M38. Both are fantastic rifles, but there are times where I've wanted a scope mounted on them for extra accuracy. Lots of other mounts require you to modify your rifle in some way, so I was very happy when I found this mount. I was a little apprehensive about the work required to install the mount, but it's dirt simple if you have a few standard tools. A set of gunsmiths punches and a small hammer are essential to the process, but they're cheap and other tools could be used in a pinch. The hardest part of the installation is getting the spring under the original sight loose. The 1896 had years of accumulated gunk that was keeping the spring from moving. Once I freed the spring, I cleaned the area where it was held in place with some CLP and softened the grease on the M38 with CLP before trying the installation. Once the sight pin and spring are removed, the part of the mount that slides into the groove formerly occupied by the spring goes in, followed by the body of the mount. Once it's properly aligned, you tap the original pin back into place, apply loctite to the screws, tighten everything up and you're good to go. Because the mount is much further forward than usual, you'll need to use a long eye relief scope. I have a Nikon Force XR 2.5X - 8X Pistol scope on a set of Warne QD rings (1" low mount) and it works perfectly for this application. I highly recommend this mount. It works perfectly and requires no modifications to your rifle.

Thank you. **Q: The mount pictured does not look like the gen 2 ndt mount on the badace website. is the actual mount for sale on amazon, the correct gen 2 mount for** A: This is the same mount, it is a gen 2. Fitting is easy. If you are planning to mount a scope, using this mount, you will need a long eye relief scope. The mount sits too far forward for a standard eye relief scope. A cantilever scope mount makes the scope too unstable. If you are going to use a red dot, you may just get away with it. The Gen 3 may be a better bet. **Q: Why is the m38 base twice the price of the M96? $70 seems reasonable to me, but not $130.** A: I do not have the answer to that question as I am unfamiliar with the M38. It could be due to any factor regarding a more difficult machining process due to the differences between the two models. I could sell these mounts, the design and construction is excellent. I have put hundreds of rounds through my M96 and never had a problem or any issue with the mount. Other mounts I have tried on other rifles either required more work to install or later loosened **Q: Will this fit an 1895 Chilean model 7mm mauser rifle?** A: The manufacturer should have the answer to this question. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Precision Made for a Perfect Fit *by R***P on April 16, 2025* The rail fit perfectly on my 1905 Swedish Mauser.

Well it fits mine like a glove, nice and solid. I'm no gun smith but this took me 10 minutes to install. Make sure to get a long eye relief scope, and enjoy your new rail! ## Frequently Bought Together - BadAce Swedish Mauser M38/M96 Picatinny Rail No Drill-Tap Scout Mount - Vortex Optics Crossfire II Second Focal Plane, 1-inch Tube Riflescopes - Vortex Optics Hunter Riflescope Rings --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/43537717-badace-swedish-mauser-m38-m96-picatinny-rail-no-drill-tap](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/43537717-badace-swedish-mauser-m38-m96-picatinny-rail-no-drill-tap) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-04*
