I probably will, I just hate to do it on this particular rifle, lol. There was a company in PA that was experimenting with some type of bracket to attach a scope, I thought about calling them and see what it's about. My only concern with that would be it staying perfectly in place.

I have sporterized a couple old military rifles just for fun, the stock has been modified on this one so I may as well drill and tap. I have a Swedish Mauser like this one, that won't get touched.

Does a Mauser have the adjustable rear 'leaf spring' sight? I was able to find an adaptor for a Mosin that took the place of the rear leaf spring, it had a set of screws that went into the old roll pin holes to hold it in place. I put many rounds through it with no issue. The only issue really was finding a nice Scout scope with a long enough eye relief.

Not my pic, but I believe this is the same mount.
