S & K scope mount for a Krag
« on: August 04, 2008, 05:52:05 PM »
i'm looking at getting one of these " no gunsmith " mount to put on my Norwegian Krag.i've seen it done by a friend and it worked. it looks like there is a band goin around the receiver ring. does this require modifiying the stock? if it does i'll forget about it and stick to peeps instead(it's already drilled and tapped for the willaims sight)
" oh we didn't sink the bismarck, and we didn't fight at all, we spent our time in Norfolk and we really had a ball. chasing after women while our ship was overhauled, living it up on grapefruit juice and sick bay alcohol"

Kevin:  I believe the stock requires minor relief on the inside to allow the 'fit' of the band.  I don't think it would take any more stock work than that, and thsoe bands aren't all that thick.  You could probably repair any inside stock reliefs with bonding material.  HTH.  Mikey.
