It soon grew into a big company with great production capacity. Steyr Mannlicher, a renowned company that produces firearms, was founded in 1864 by Josef Werndl. All of these great features however, come at quite a steep price. EAW chooses only the best materials for their products. Their Picatinny rails, which are all made from steel, have a nice finish and come with a unique channel in the middle, allowing the user to clearly see the rifle's sights. This is one of the main reasons why Picatinny is a far better mounting solution.ĮAW is a German company, known for producing top-quality mounts. Weaver's slot is 3.8 mm wide, which is why ring mounts made for a Weaver rail will also fit on a Picatinny rail while ring mounts made specifically for a Picatinny rail will not fit on a Weaver rail. Weaver has a few predesignated slots while Picatinny has slots all over its surface, allowing the device to be mounted wherever the user finds it fitting. Picatinny is a big step forward from the Weaver standard. Because of all its great qualities, Picatinny rail has been dominating the rail market in the recent years. It is affordable, resilient and reliable – this is why it so commonly used by professionals and military. It is simple to mount and interchangeable – if something is made for a Picatinny rail, it will fit regardless of the manufacturer or manufacturing date.
