The EGW Mossberg 695 bolt-action scope base brings modern optics mounting to your shotgun without the hassle of gunsmithing. If you're running a Mossberg 695 and want to add a rifle scope for slug hunting or precision shooting, this one-piece Picatinny rail mounts directly to your receiver's factory holes—no drilling, no tapping, no trips to the gunsmith. It's the fastest way to go from factory irons to a proper glass setup.
Built from 6061 T6 extruded aluminum, this mount is both lightweight and rigid enough to hold zero through recoil. The Picatinny slots are machined to MIL-STD 1913 spec (±.002"), so it'll work with any standard Picatinny or Weaver rings you already own. The full-width cross-slots give you flexibility to dial in your eye relief exactly where you need it, and swapping rings or scopes is genuinely fast—just loosen and slide.
The "Tactical" design includes a milled center channel that shaves weight without sacrificing rigidity. You get socket head Torx screws and a wrench in the box. EGW recommends 20 inch-lbs of torque and a light application of blue Loctite when you install it. Once it's mounted, your 695 is ready to handle slugs or buckshot with the accuracy a quality scope delivers.
