Title: LER Handgun Scope Installed on S/N 168550
Post by Qbert on Mar 23rd, 2013 at 4:38pm
My eyesight is getting pretty bad, having to use "hexavision" (tri-focals) and am having trouble seeing the front sight (which is the edge of a silver dime thanks to great granddad). Decided to put a scope on. Got a short rail from KragHaus. Found that the rail was the correct size for the cut out in the upper grip wood but the pre-drilled and CBOR'ed holes didn't line up with the rear sight screw holes.  Re-drilled and CBOR'ed the holes so I wouldn't have to modify the wood. Everything screwed together tight, scope is rock solid. It certainly has improved groups at 100 yd and 200 yd. We'll have to see about how it does putting meat on the table next season.
