scope mounting

[winky]

is there a good way to mount one on these guns. What mount would you recomend.

[tomoshenko]

Maybe. It depends on what your mounting it on.

As Tom said, we would need to know more. Who made your receiver, is it stamped or cast? Once we have those answers, we can point you in the right direction for a scope mount.

i would have to say by looking its a sheet metal reciever and the only markings on it are the serial number and centery arms. What im thinking if it will work is a low powered variable or even a aimpoint i allready have.

Sounds like you have a stamped receiver. Here is a thread discussing scope mounting:

Here is another thread discussing the low scope mount on a stamped receiver:

This is what I did, without the set screw:

The mount is an HK style low scope mount. I've shot ~100 rounds with it mounted and it is solid.

I did the same thing with a low mount but drilled and tapped the mount in line with the hole in my Century receiver, larger than the hole. Then chucked a set screw in the drill press and ground down the end with a trusty dremel leaving a tit that fit into the receiver hole, but not long enough to jam the bolt. Creates a pin to hold everything in place and can't fall into the receiver.
