A very nice find, Waidmannsheil! Scope and mount were certainly fitted post-WW2. May I draw your attention to a sentence in Rigby's catalog description of their "Take-Down" Mechanism: " We do not recommend this if our telescope sight is required." So you have to try out if the rifle holds zero after dis- and reassembling barrel and scope.

To get things clear :..not recommended if our ( Rigby´s !!) telescope sight is required.

Rigby´s scope mounting technique used to fix the front ring base on the barrel.
The side mount avoids the problems arising when bridging the action and barrel with the scope.

Return to zero after dis-and reassembling the takedown maybe or may not be a problem , independent from the mounted scope.
