The EGW NEF/HNR Handi Rifle 20 MOA scope mount is a one-piece Picatinny rail system designed to add optics versatility to your New England Firearms or Harrington and Richardson Handi Rifle without any gunsmithing. Machine-drilled to match your rifle's factory scope mount holes, this mount lets you dial in precise shooting angles while maintaining the simplicity and reliability Handi Rifle owners expect.
Built from extruded 6061 T6 aluminum and precision-machined to MIL-STD 1913 Picatinny specifications, the EGW mount accepts either Picatinny or Weaver-pattern scope rings—giving you flexibility in optic choice and quick adjustments to eye relief. The full-width cross-slots are gauged to +/−.002 inches for tight, consistent ring mounting. The milled center channel reduces weight while maintaining rigidity, a practical touch for hunters who carry their rifles through brush and field.
Installation is straightforward: the mount uses socket head Torx screws (wrench included) and threads directly into the factory receiver holes. EGW recommends 20 inch-pounds of torque and a small drop of blue threadlocker for a secure, permanent fit. This is an ideal upgrade if you want to move away from the rifle's iron sights or add a quality optic while keeping modifications minimal and reversible if needed.
