trying to locate a steel scope base
« on: February 04, 2014, 01:31:11 PM »
Needing to weld a scope base on a stub project and I was wondering if any one knew who still carries the steel scope bases or if someone might have one to trade. (broke my tap off in the second scope base hole I was trying to make)
