Hi,
and thank you both for the input.It does seem to be later gunsmith made up mount.I suspect the orginal mount and scope never made it into the duffle bag of the GI who liberated it.
I have not tried any bases but will order some.Would the Cross lock rings be a good way to go or should I just get some sure grip ones,and how high 1"? There is a windage adjustment on the rear of the mount.I will take some better close ups of it.
The slots in the base are 4 1/6 apart,so I should look at scopes where the ring will fit on the body section in that range then no?
thanks for the input
Dave
