No, I'm not interested in a picatinny rail on a combination set of barrels or a double rifle. Even a cheap one.
John,
I'm not suggesting that you slap 6 or 8 inches of Picatinny rail on top of your gun. I'm suggesting you get a blank steel Picatinny rail and have a gunsmith cut off a piece to fit exactly inside the existing dovetail on your gun, without enlarging the dovetail. It will be nearly, if not completely flush with the existing rib. Then the RMR goes on and comes off like a QD mount.
Curl
John may not be interested but for those that may, Curl is right, a very tidy base can be formed of a section of rail and if steel can be very thin and unobtrusive.
On a separate but related note...where the most Dangerous Game of all is hunted, glass has just about completely replaced iron for all except very few circumstances.
