    French MC52 clone scope Mounts

    Anyone have experience with these? How do they hold up. Ordered one and am waiting on delivery. Will be mounting a commercial Kollmorgen 4x on a rifle build in .308.

    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. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I purchased some t4 Rings and aluminum Griffin and Howe mount - Stripped it for parts (levers, springs, stop screw and bar) and had a friend machine up the base

    G&H is making new steel M1C mounts here at their store in NJ. This one is an all steel MC52. May take it up to their shop to have it mounted up. Hoping someone can machine up some clone external knobs for my scope. Hate the standard.

    the external knobs consist of 6 major parts and having someone make a set of 2 would be Very expensive in the thousands of dollars

    Not familiar with the individual internal components, but what I was thinking was to have an external knob fashioned with similar aesthetics, that internally would mate up with the slot on the existing turrets and could be fastened with longer screws using the existing screw holes. Not sure how to get the audible clicks to work. Have an idea in my head on how to make it work but Im not a machinist, just a nurse practitioner. Trying to make it so its more user friendly to me.
