Alright chaps.

I am taking my 4-16x50 scope off my '67 mod 2 and putting the old 3-9x40 back on because the bigger scope is hopefully going on a 17hmr(FAC is away for a variation on this at the moment, hope I am not temping fate here).
When I had it off it struck me what a lovely looking rifle it is bare, and its almost a shame to put a scope on it.
Thinking about it I should have put in for another .22 as well so I could have one with iron sights, to late for that now though :(

What do you lot think?

The table needs painting

Put that scope back on say I.

Yea the scope will go back on as its not fair to shoot bunnies without it(not for me anyway).

That table has a whole litre of hammerite on it

I'm going to say...

Get a sling and iron sights and crack on!

A few places in the USA make nice simple aperture sights for the Mod 2 - which would be a good idea seeing as your normal rearsight is missing

Iron sights out to 35- 40 yards would be fun to try, test on paper first though.
