Rifle Scope Dovetail
Rifle Scope Dovetail
how do i put a scope designed for a dovetail on a old 22 bolt with out any kind of mounting mechanism ?
my grandpa gave me an old 22 bolt action rifle and i bought a tasco rimfire scope for it. it says its made to fit 3/8 dovetail receivers but on the gun there is no kind of receiver at all. i was wondering if you can simply buy the dovetail receiver its self to put on the gun or what.
the receiver is the part of the rifle that contains the bolt and the barrel is attached to it
the 3/8" dovetail receivers note is in reference to the fact that many .22s come with the receiver grooved so the scope rings can be attached directly to the receiver of the rifle without having to buy a base
I believe your best bet is to take it to a gunsmith and have him drill and tap the receiver to mount a base (or there may be a specific base for your rifle)
