JohnGalway Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 My mate has an old single shot .22lr. Open sights, not set up to take bases or mounts to attach a scope. I am wondering if it would be possible for a smithy to drill and tap his rifle so we could put a scope on it? I don't know what model it is but it looks similar to >this< I know that's a photo of a Cooey, mate reckons his is a BSA, I didn't check the rifle So, with those stunningly accurate facts outlined, anyone got the answer if it can be drilled and tapped to accept mounts?

JohnGalway Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I don't think there was, but I'll have to check the rifle when I see him again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest varmartin Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 It sure can be fitted with a scope base. My dad left me his BSA sportsman 15... And i reckon thats what your mate has, but a single shot. My local gun smith fitted a scope rail by tapping a couple holes in the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnGalway Posted October 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2009 There's definitely no rail on it, looked at it today, I'll try for a picture tomorrow. There's a channel in the top of the action, it's to let the bolt handle come out, pull the trigger and it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
