The EGW Browning Lever Action BLR scope base brings modern optics mounting to a classic platform. If you run a Browning BLR and want to add or upgrade your scope setup without gunsmithing, this one-piece Picatinny rail mounts directly to your factory holes—no drilling, no tapping, no trips to the gunsmith. It's the fastest way to go from iron sights to glass on a lever gun.
Built from extruded 6061 T6 aluminum, this mount is precision-machined to tight tolerances and designed to be rigid enough for hard hunting use. The Picatinny slots are gauged to military spec (MIL-STD 1913), so you're not locked into one ring system. You can run Picatinny or Weaver rings, and the slot-and-rail spacing lets you dial in eye relief quickly if you need to swap optics or adjust your setup in the field. The milled center channel keeps weight down without sacrificing strength.
Installation is straightforward: the base uses socket head Torx screws (included, along with the wrench) and EGW recommends 20 inch-pounds of torque with a drop of blue loctite to keep everything locked in place. This is the kind of detail-oriented design that separates a solid mount from a frustrating one—you get the hardware, the tool, and the spec sheet all in the box.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this mount fit my Browning BLR without drilling?
Yes. The EGW base is drilled to match the factory scope mount holes on the BLR receiver, so installation requires no gunsmithing or additional drilling.
Can I use this with any scope rings?
The mount accepts both Picatinny and Weaver scope rings, giving you flexibility in ring choice. The Picatinny slots are gauged to military spec, so standard Picatinny rings will fit and hold securely.
What's the eye relief adjustment range?
The slot-and-rail spacing allows you to move your rings forward or backward along the rail to adjust eye relief, but specific measurement ranges are not provided in the product specs. We recommend test-fitting your scope and rings to dial in the right position for your shooting style.
How should I install and torque this mount?
Use the included Torx wrench to install the socket head screws. EGW recommends 20 inch-pounds of torque and a small drop of blue loctite on the screws to keep them locked in place during shooting.
