Description
EB01 – Extra-Long Picatinny Extension (SB02) for Night Vision & Tactical Use
Extended Forward Offset | Picatinny Interface
The Contessa EB01 Extra-Long Picatinny Extension (SB02) is a precision-machined rail extension designed to provide additional forward mounting space on rifles used for night vision and tactical applications. By extending the usable Picatinny rail length, the EB01 allows correct positioning of night vision devices, thermal optics, clip-ons, and tactical accessories where standard rail space is insufficient.
Manufactured by Contessa Alessandro & C., the EB01 is engineered for rigidity and alignment, ensuring mounted optics remain secure and properly positioned even under recoil. The extended design is particularly useful when mounting digital or night vision optics that require increased eye relief or rearward device placement, as well as clip-on systems used in front of daytime scopes.
Designed as a dedicated rail extension, the EB01 integrates cleanly with compatible mounting systems and maintains consistent rail geometry for reliable optic engagement.
