Mauser 48 or 24/47 with Leupold extra high rings???
I'm looking at buying a Mauser as a late summer project. I think it would be an excellant medium range big game rifle and fills a niche I am needing.
I don't want a scout scope nor a S & K insta-mount. Keeping it in it's original condition isn't a priority for me since it's "till death do us part". My main concern is keeping the military look but having a dependable sporting rifle.
Obvouisly there are better choices like a howa, stevens, mossy, etc but I have enough of those already.
The question:
If a Mauser 48 is drilled and tapped, will the bolt and safety clear using the Leupold "extra high" rings???
Thanks in advance
The 48 has the turned bolt so all you have to do is get the modified safety to install on the rear of the bolt. There is an interesting article a Gun Digest (sometime last year) about a guy who had one fitted with a scope and how it shot. You can't go wrong with what you are doing; it will outlast both of us.
