help identifying C1A1 scope mounts.

[furlongcustom]

I have these two scope mounts for an FN rifle. I believe one is the C1A1 sniper scope mount, but I have not been able to find out any info about the second one in the photos. Any info is appreciated.

Is the far one not for night vision?

If you put better pictures up - with a camera and not a mobile - you can usually get to the answer or if not the definitive answer, then by deduction. On that basis and the poor picture, the front one looks like a home tack welded hybrid of something. But I could be wrong!

Here are some better photos.

FN-C1 scope mount top cover? A thread about the short body cover. Yes, it looks like the scope mount.

The long mount still looks like a night scope mount to me but since there were so many variations, I can't say. I don't think it will take the PVS 502 though for one...

I want to positively identify them so I can sell them...

[browningautorifle]

Well, the top one is identified...as for the other, sell as is. Two guys that know what it is will bid to the moon for it.

wheres a good place to sell it?

[browningautorifle]

Probably Ebay...watch your wording though. Maybe Gunbroker...there will be guys here have done way more selling on Ebay that can shed light if you wait a minute.

Thread 4, photo 4 LOOKS like a locally made version for the heavy old SS20/UK type IIW. But to be really honest, the notion that the side slide-on/off mount could be held onto the bracket cover with 4 allen bolts and remain secure under recoil is seems unlikely to me. Simply because…… Anyway!
