Recommend an M1 Garand scope mount

**Dieudonne' Saive.** · 12-09-2019 03:36 PM

My eyes are not what they used to be, so I require a bit of optical assistance nowadays, and would like to mount a vintage 20mm scope on an M1 icon

Garand weapon. Obviously, it would need to allow the use of the en bloc clips...

What the best/lowest scope mount for this weapon. Can someone please enlighten me on this subject please?

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.

Looks good, but...
" The M1 Garand CASM® scope mount is designed to mount your scope inline with the bore and requires the use of a Holbrook Device (or SLED device) to preclude the ejection of the M1 Garand en bloc clip. "

Yes it precludes the use of en blocks in the prescribed manner but that's the trade off in mounting optics on a rifle that was never intended to be optically sighted.

It's a bit fiddly to begin with but once you get used to loading rounds one at a time it's not so bad.
