1" Mounts for Picatinny/Weaver Rails
A 25.4 mm (1 inch) tube diameter is widespread on classic and American-style riflescopes. For Picatinny or Weaver rails we offer a broad range of ring mounts from Anschütz Optics as well as mounts from Sportsmatch UK.
Quick-Release or Screwed Fixation
The Anschütz Optics ring mount 1" with quick-release lever (Low, Medium, High) allows tool-free, fast mounting and dismounting – ideal for frequent optic swaps. If you prefer maximum stability for continuous hard use, the tactical ring mount 1" with two hex screws per ring (also in Low, Medium, High) is the better choice. Both variants are made from 6061-T6 aluminium and rated for a maximum torque of 2.0 Nm at the ring.
Height-Adjustable or Fixed
For individual adjustment to your optic, shooting position or ergonomic preference, the Anschütz Optics variable ring mount 1" offers a height-adjustable solution with quick-release lever. The Sportsmatch UK 1" (TO54C) is a proven, medium-height two-piece alternative for objective diameters up to 50 mm.

Frequently Asked Questions About 1" Picatinny/Weaver Mounts
Which height (Low/Medium/High) do I need?
That depends on your riflescope's objective diameter and your rifle's build: Low for compact optics with a small objective, High for scopes with a large objective diameter that would otherwise touch the barrel.
QR mount or screwed mount – which is better?
Quick-release mounts allow a tool-free, fast optic swap. Screwed tactical mounts offer marginally more stability for continuous hard use.
Does a 1" mount also fit 30 mm scopes?
No, the tube diameter must exactly match your riflescope. For 30 mm tubes you'll find the matching mounts here.
How tight should I tighten the mount?
Recommended torque is usually around 2.0 Nm for the ring screws at the riflescope and around 3.4 Nm for fixing the mount to the rail. Overtightening can damage the scope tube.
