Strange to have a machined integral scope mounting block on barrel and then dovetail the receiver, cutting into the engraving to mount base.
The only explanation I have been able to come up with is that the scope was too short to mount using the barrel flat as intended. At that time, the most popular scope was the Zeiss Zielvier or equivalent, and most were mounted with rings that fit the main tube, rather than the objective.
