Eagle Vision 170mm 13mm Dovetail To Picatinny Rail Adapter
For 13mm BSA Dovetails
"For 13mm dovetail rails, this 170mm Eagle Vision adapter is a solid, cost-effective way to move to Picatinny. It gives you the freedom to pick the best mounts and rings without replacing your entire rail. Staff recommend it for air rifles and rimfires where flexibility and compatibility are key." - Soph (Technical Sales Advisor).
Some rifles — most well known and used being BSA — use a 13 mm dovetail rail, which is slightly wider and deeper than the more common 11 mm dovetail.
The Eagle Vision 170mm 13mm Dovetail To Picatinny Rail Adapter is a quick and easy way to allow you to convert your 13mm Dovetail mount into a Picatinny rail opening up full compatibility with modern optics, mounts, and accessories.
Absolutely essential for the use of the majority of red dot sights and many Night Vision units that only offer a picatinny fitting.
Made from a robust and lightweight Aluminum, the Eagle Vision Adapter has two way in which you can use it:
Option 1: Take the side grab screws off, place the rail in your scope mount, then while you’re tightening your scope mount it will grab and hold your rifle’s Dovetail Rail.
Option 2: Place the adaptor on your rifle rail, tight the side grab screws so the adaptor will stay on your rifle rail. You can secure the adaptor by grabbing screws from top for rifle with some recoil.

Q1: What's the difference between 13 mm and 11 mm dovetail rails?
A 13 mm dovetail is wider and often deeper than the more typical 11 mm found on many air rifles. It's most commonly seen on BSA rifles and some target-style platforms. An 11 mm adapter usually won't grip properly or may misalign — so it's essential to choose a dedicated 13 mm adapter like this one.
Q2: How do I confirm my rifle has a 13 mm dovetail?
Measure across the rail’s top – edge to edge. If it’s close to 13 mm, and especially if it’s a BSA, Daystate (older), or a European match-style rifle, it’s likely 13 mm. Also check the angle and depth — 13 mm tends to have a steeper angle and deeper grooves than 11 mm.
Q3: What rifles is this adapter commonly used with?
-
BSA air rifles (Scorpion, R10, Ultra, etc.)
-
Older Daystates
-
Some Weihrauch and Steyr models
-
Match-style rifles with wider dovetails
Always measure to confirm.
Q4: Will this raise my optic height?
Yes — this adapter adds a low-profile Picatinny rail on top of your dovetail, so your optic will sit slightly higher. For scopes with large objective lenses or rifles needing improved clearance, this can be a benefit.
Q5: What’s included?
-
170 mm anodised aluminium adapter rail
-
Top and side grab screws
-
End stop screws
-
Allen keys for installation
