BKL Technologies Model 260

BKL Technologies is a well-regarded manufacturer of scope mounts and rings for airguns and rimfire rifles in particular, offering several different lines of products depending on the optic and mounting interface being used.

The company’s 200-series mounts, for example, are designed to install a riflescope with a 1" main tube atop either 3/8" rimfire or 11 mm air rifle dovetail rails, and the Model 260 is the strongest of the bunch.

Made of aircraft-grade aluminum (available in either matte black or silver) and offering 4" of clamp length held firm by six screws, yet weighing just 5.1 ozs., the BKL-260 is an ideal choice for magnum airguns and rimfires that employ a European-style dovetailed receiver.

MSRP is $55. For more information, visit bkltech.com.
