Your help is needed, k98k project comming to realization

[Greg]

Cause I bought them from a gentlemen who had a spare pare, he got them off robert... I saved 100 bucks.

Thats why

Personally, I would look for another scope with a 26.5 Diameter Tube.
Good Machinists are anything but cheap these days.
You may have saved $100 but how much more will you have to spend?
