Hello Louis

Your experience is chillingly similar to mine. I have bought 3 MS rifles over the years in the UK and had them shipped to me here in OZ. One of them......a M1950 in 9.3x62 was smashed thru the grip en-route from William Evans where I bought it, to the exporter. I ended up having a custom stock fitted here in OZ......and the exact same scope and mount set-up you have.

My 6.5 was bought at Holts and it has the same foresight set-up as your M1905. When I got it, it was scoped with an ancient old scope. It also has been replaced with the same set-up your's now has.

My 9.5 is currently at the gunsmith to have a refurb........and to be scoped to match my other 2.

Cheers.

GG
