I finally found time to make an adjustable rear mount for my Uberti 1985 replica. Once it was finished I couldn't resist coming here bragging about it - Sorry!
After replacing the front mount some years ago the scope worked as intended, but the original rear mount pretty much limited the rifle to a one-range affair.
A rear mount - easily adjusted in height - seemed as a good idea, and I came up with a simple, but sturdy, design:
Next step was to actually produce the various parts. Since it's almost CNC mill work only, I decided to make an extra set for my Swedish RB while at it.
A few parts from an old Schulz & Larsen sight came handy as well.
The final result.
I still need to have the parts blued - and calculate witness lines for the different ranges.
The scope have about 2.5 degree max tilt, which should give a max sighting range slightly over 600 yards. More than enough for both the rifle & me.
