Custom Parts On Auctions.

[bilurey]

I have 3 G&H scope mounts, 1 German copy, and 1 Swede commercial version of the M96/41 side mount used on their sniper rifles. They are not for sale, but rather to illustrate some 25 years of experience Below I have listed 3 side mounts and one trigger currently available on Ebay. These tend to be very attractive to fellows who enjoy creating their own custom rifles. However, if you are not framiliar with these items you can end up spending large sums of cash (in addition to the purchase price) getting them properly attached to your rifle.

 

This is particularly true of the side-mount scope set ups. Many of the older mounts require 3/4", 7/8", or 26mm scopes, and if the scope is included it is usually a pre-war unit with uncoated lenses and is not moisture proof. In addition, if a mounting plate is included, will it fit your rifles sidewall and conture. Also,many of these older units raise the scope above the fixed iron sights ("shoot under" style mounts) which make face alighment on the stock very difficult. Altering attaching plates is a serious concern due to the cost, creating a new plate is very expensive. Unless the mount is a Jaeger or G&H for which parts are available, I would suggest sticking with rifles with the mount alrealy attached. It may be less expensive to rebarrel a completed rifle than to alter one of these mounts to fit your rifle. Here are the items:

 

 

This has no mounting plate to attach this unit to left sidewall of receiver. Unless one could be found, a plate would have to be machined from scratch. View this Item on eBay at cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI...:B:EF:US:1

 

This unit does not have the mounting plate which attaches this unit to the side rail of the receiver. G&H has side plates available. View this Item on eBay at cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI...:B:EF:US:1

 

 

This is an older, discontinued, M70 Win. type, FN trigger assembly. Extreme care must be used in attaching to trigger guard to ensure prober spacing with sear nose of cocking piece. This design was discontinued as the trigger guard metal is soft and even the slightest wear could change the alignment. Streamlined bolt shrouds and side safetys cannot be used with this trigger.

This is a complete side mount, the plate which attaches it this unit may have to be altered to fit the rifle on which you mount it. View this Item on eBay at cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI...:B:EF:US:1

 

Good luck, asking questions is cheaper than replacing or altering a purchased item. Bill
