    That's better, never have I seen it mounted on an M1icon rifle, just the M3 carbine...makes sense they would want it too. Very nice find. Don't have any info...

    Time to show us a bit of an expose' then...maybe a few pics. This one, others will be along and perhaps can tell you. One here was issued M1icon rifle in 1960 and may have heard from his elders about this scope. We do have some collectors here that have the infra red scope though, I last saw one in the hardware in 1975/76 mounted on an M3 with full equipment but don't know if it worked...these look awkward on the rifle.

    I R on M1 rifle

    I know of two collectors that have the I. R. mounted on US M1 rifles. I have seen one in person too. They use the same bracket holes as the M1C but a different mount. The really difficult part of this unit is finding the batteries and pouch from what I understand. On the Danishicon I. R. the bracket or mount is welded on to the receiver.

    It was reported that US Special Forces were using the I.R. on the M1 Rifle in 1962 and it must have seen limited service in the early days of Viet Nam too.

    There are also photos of the M14icon Rifle with the I.R.

    Danish Night Vision (IR) M1 Garand welded scope mount

    Good Day All,
    A few years ago, a number of Danishicon contract, Italianicon made M1icon receivers with unknown welded scope mounts showed up in Canadaicon. I conversed with a few of the owners who provided the below pictures. This rifle has an additional mount bolted between the two brackets. The thought is the brackets would support an AN/PAS-4 or a AN/PVS-1 attached to it.
    Regards,
    Mike
