Gee, Ian, you'd think that even a non-gun engineer would be aware of recoil forces. I'm surprised that someone didn't just pickup a gun catalog and see the American scope mount offerings from Weaver, Redfield, Leopold, Lyman and Williams and get the idea that their scope mount dovetails were 90-degrees wrong. Anyhow, thanks for all the other info ... a very interesting piece of K98k history.

nlthough an israely mauser in 762 would be kind of the the mauser I'd buy. that mount is just horrible.
