1100 scope mount
« on: July 16, 2007, 06:23:03 AM »
Hello,  I bought a cantelever barrel for my 12ga 1100,and did not like the flex or the height of the scope mount.Since this is a dedicated slug gun I went  with a different system. I exchanged the cantelever for a full rifle,rifle sight barrel, then properly tourqued the barrel in the receiver.Then I drilled three holes through a 6in. low weaver rail,through the top of the receiver,and through the barrel extension, being careful to avoid the bolt lug recess. after opening the holes in the rail and receiver to a tight clearance fit, I tapped the holes in the bar. ext. for 10-32 machine srews.After countersinking the holes in the rail and assembling the gun with pan head allen screws the result is a super,rock solid scope to receiver,to barrel connection,that can be easily dissasembled.Plus I can pop off the scope and see over the rail to use the iron sights.

Hastings used to do it this way and with so many great pistol scopes today it's to bad they still don't

The scope is located on the receiver,for normal rifle scopes.I also have a NEF Tracker 12ga. full rifled slug gun,that I mounted a Burris posi lock 2-7 handgun scope on.The tracker only weighs 5 lbs. and loves Win.partition golds, so the recoil is brutal.Because of the recoil I wanted the scope far from my face,so I mounted the scope scout style.Plus this leaves the receiver area clean for a one handed carry.
