My aging eyes are prompting me to scope out my favorite rifles. I'm considering a Weaver 2.5-7x28mm rimfire scope for my Marlin 39AS and have some questions.
- Are the factory bases made of Aluminium or steel? If they're aluminium, I may try a Weaver base instead.
- I have two small screw holes and a larger one in between on top of the receiver. Which are used to attach the base(s)?
- I see both one and two piece bases advertised. Is there any advantage either way?
- This may be a long shot, but does anyone know if I'll be okay using low rings with the 28mm objective lens? Will I have to remove the front sight?
Thanks for your time and knowledge.
