WTB-Buehler scope mount base for 1903 Springfield. #198255 08/05/10 03:53 AM

OP Idared Sidelock Joined: Oct 2008 Posts: 158 Central Washington	I am looking for an early Buehler scope mount base for a 1903 Springfield. It is a long one piece base that is simply stamped 03 on the bottom of the base. The front scope ring mounts ahead of the front receiver ring screws. It is a longer base than the later Code 03 short model. If you have one you would part with please PM me the condition and what you value it at. Many thanks The remodelled Springfield is the best and most suitable all 'round rifle. - Seymour Griffin

The newer model was the SS and that's gone. Still has rings though. Rob My problem lies in reconciling my gross habits with my net income. - Errol Flynn

The first is a one piece Remington 700-721-725 or Weatherby Mark V base. The second is a one piece BL-U blank Micro-Dial (adjustable base) for gunsmith fitting to non-cataloged rifles. It is flat on the bottom and undrilled in front, also NOS. If anyone needs either of these send me a PM and we will work something out with a contribution to Dave. I would also trade either piece for a NOS Buehler safety for either a 98 or a Swedish Mauser (96).
