Bill;

I think the task of converting the scope mounts is not difficult as it looks like they are a candidate for milling dovetails for a modern light weight set-up. And in the regard to lightweight a very light weight scope is in order so as to try to keep the original barrel regulation (with a scope). A European educated and trained gunsmith is the choice I would go if I were you, one who was trained in that type of firearm, and we have several in the USA---therefore I would call Gunter Pfrommer. Gunter is renown for his exceptional skills and quick turnaround.
