M84 Scope Problem?

**Jake1** · 05-04-2010 06:19 AM

Son and I shoot regularly at NRA range. Picked up one of the CMP icon

M1Ds recently. Nice shape in all respects. Went to gun show and met collector and picked up cheek pad (MRT52), M84 scope with mount, and flash supressor-the narrow one with times not the funnel. Having problem with the scope moving fwd in the mount as a result of the recoil. Know this because with abt an inch movement the rubber eye piece blocks the clip ejecting. Plan on tightening down more and putting a pencil mark to see if scope moves in mount. Can't be the first one to experience this problem-any thoughts

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

Happened to me too. Scratched my scope nicely. Not happy.

a small strip of 600 sandpaper back to back inside the mounts should cure the problem...

Dissolve some Pitchers Rosin in Alcohol, and paint the paste on inside of rings. Tighten down and enjoy. To remove compound wipe off with Alcohol dampened rag.

Friction paper may work well too. If you guys shoot at Quantico, let me know.

I hear that CMP icon

has found someone to make M84 scopes for their Snipers. Also they made do a Sniper fun match shot at 300 & 600 yds in the near future. Should be fun to get the 1903's, M1C's & D's out of the safe.
