Some
of us have been fascinated by the Swiss K-31
C&R rifles. They are very fine rifles,
well built, and shooting very accurate ammo.
The military sights on the rifles are excellent
sights and I can shoot them about as well
at 50 yards as any rifle I own. But these
eyes need a little help at 100 yards. I just
can't do as well with iron sights as I can
with a scope at 100 yards.
There is a great scope mount for the K-31.
It isn't too expensive and works like a
charm.
I bought one from Brownell's and installed
a scope on the rifle.
The clamp-on mount cost $60.22 and the scope
rings (1" high) cost $15.30.
Here it is.
It
is a Tasco scope, a 4 X 16 X 40mm scope.
Not expensive, but a good scope, with parallax
adjustment.
As
you can see, it mounts slightly to the side,
allowing the loading of the magazine from
the top.
It is slightly to the right side, but not
so much that it is difficult to get a good
cheek weld.
The
mount has an ingenious single-point clamp-on
mounting system, that does not mark the
rifle in any way.
The single point is best adjusted all the
way forward on the side of the action and
then clamped down.
