You guys would mess your pants if you saw the book put out by the Williams Gunsight Co. in the 1950's & 60’s called "How to Convert Military Rifles." Good stuff in there like milling the sight ears of off M1917's, jewelling the gas cylinder on the M1Garand & other "improvements" like thumb-hole stocks & contrasting wood inlays. The military sights were chopped off to be replaced by Williams’s aluminum sights & scope mounts.
Sometimes the "good 'ol days" weren’t that good.
An M1would make one hell of a deer rifle. But wtf does everyone and their brother have to jerry rig the gun? Especially by cutting the sites off to put a scope on. I mean don't get me wrong I have a scope on my Remington 700 and have killed many a deer with it but, I mean the peep on am M1 is about as good as it gets. I mean its one of the easiest adjusting sites I have ever seen.
Still LMAO.
Kinda begs the question....."What the hell were you thinking?"
The real point to ponder is that somehow, somewhere there exists an individual that thinks that form of abortion is actually an "improvement"...and that there are other people that are bound to agree with him! Good Gawd Amighty!
Take it into Cabelas and and have them fix you up with a scope mount. Maybe Wallmart will have one.
That thing is HORRID! Best thing for it would be to offer it to Captain Crunch as a sacrificial offering.
