NONE

I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough regarding the scope for a Bear rifle.. It is not mandated by law but by conditions on most Brown Bear ranges. Nothing is always, but most Brown Bear, when wounded, head for the thickets and the Alder. That is where they become very dangerous and a scope can be of immeasurable value. Not all, not many, Bears are shot completely in the open at open site ranges.

The guide will probably have open sites on his rifle as it will be needed for close work. Although on another forum there is a big argument about the guides being required to shoot at every Bear that their client shoots at.

QD attachments would be mandatory on any scoped DG rifle and once off a scope would stay off. Nothing to screw around with.
