Product Overview
The EGW Yugoslavian Mauser M48 Picatinny Rail provides a one-piece optics mounting platform designed for the Yugo Mauser M48.
Machined from domestic 6061 T6 extruded aluminum, the rail provides a continuous Picatinny mounting surface for flexible scope-ring positioning and proper eye relief.
This 0 MOA version features a published 3.8" center spread, an overall length of 5.575", and weighs approximately 2 ounces.
Unlike many receivers that are already drilled and tapped for a scope rail, the Yugoslavian Mauser M48 requires the receiver to be drilled and tapped to use this mount.

Designed for the Yugoslavian Mauser M48
This rail is specifically designed for the Yugoslavian Mauser M48, also commonly referred to as the Yugo Mauser M48.
Mauser-pattern rifles exist in many different receiver configurations. Do not select this rail simply because your rifle is described as a Mauser. Confirm that your rifle is the Yugoslavian M48 before installation.
YUGOSLAVIAN M48 APPLICATION
This rail is intended specifically for the Yugo Mauser M48. It should not be confused with our Mauser 98 Large Ring, Swedish Mauser, Zastava M85 Mini Mauser, or other Mauser-pattern rails.
3.8" Center Spread
The mounting pattern on this rail uses a published 3.8" center spread.
Because the M48 receiver must be drilled and tapped, the mounting-hole locations must be accurately established on the receiver during installation.
THE RECEIVER MUST BE DRILLED AND TAPPED
The rail itself uses the published 3.8" center spread. Your rifle receiver must be correctly positioned, drilled, and tapped to accept the rail. Accurate alignment is critical before any machining is performed.
One-Piece Picatinny Rail
Picatinny cross slots run the full length of the rail, giving you flexibility when positioning scope rings and establishing proper eye relief.
The center channel reduces overall mass while maintaining a continuous one-piece optics mounting platform across the receiver.
In many applications, the center channel may also allow continued use of factory iron sights.
Domestic 6061 T6 Aluminum
We machine this rail from domestic 6061 T6 extruded aluminum in our shop.
After machining, the rail is tumbled, sandblasted, and Type II anodized with a matte black finish for long-lasting durability.
0 MOA Configuration
This version has 0 MOA of built-in elevation and is intended for applications where additional elevation from the rail is not required.
0 MOA VS. 20 MOA
0 MOA: Recommended for shooting approximately 0-500 yards.
20 MOA: Recommended for shooting approximately 500-1000 yards where additional scope elevation may be beneficial.
Installation
The Yugoslavian Mauser M48 receiver must be drilled and tapped to install this rail.
The rail must be correctly positioned and aligned on the receiver before the mounting-hole locations are established. Because drilling and tapping the receiver is a permanent modification, we recommend installation by a qualified gunsmith.
#6-48 X 1/4" mounting screws and a T-10 bit are included.
After the receiver has been properly drilled and tapped and the rail has been fitted, we recommend tightening the mounting screws to 20 in-lbs and applying a small amount of blue threadlocker.
Minor fitment may be required due to manufacturing tolerances and variations between individual rifles.
GUNSMITH INSTALLATION RECOMMENDED
Installation requires accurately positioning the rail and drilling and tapping the rifle receiver. Improper hole placement or alignment can prevent correct installation. We recommend this work be performed by a qualified and competent gunsmith.
Made in the USA
The rail and included mounting accessories are made in the USA.
