H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted September 27, 2019 Share Posted September 27, 2019 By "real" I mean a "pre-'83" one that was made before the introduction of angle eject. I remember when I worked at K-Mart we sold special mounts that could be used to attach a scope to the left side of the rifle's frame. It was rather ingenious, as I recall, although of no use to a southpaw like me. I was wondering if anyone else remember this, and if you still have it.

Nimble Fingers SASS# 25439 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I saw a Weaver pre64 scope mount on EBay but not sure that is what you are referring to. Might want to search for it and see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 I am just wondering if anyone else might remember the novel way a scope was installed on a pre-83 Winchester 94, a gun that was really not designed for a scope in the first place. To a lesser extent I am wondering if anyone around here might still have one. Just idle curiosity. Nothing more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Mulo Vaquero, SASS #55942 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I believe this is what you're looking for. I had it on a 94' for a couple deer seasons. Doesn't require any drilling or tapping other holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horace Patootie, SASS #35798 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 I had a saddle ring carbine. The scope mount was up front on barrel and magazine with a pistol scope. worked well. Horace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramblin Gambler Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I remember them, I was just talking about it with a buddy this weekend. He got an old 94 and might want to put a scope on it (I'm trying to talk him out of it). I always thought scout scopes like horace described was a better solution. I believe those just went into the dovetail for the rear sight. I had a cousin who shot one of the side mounted scopes. He'd turn the rifle so the scope was directly above the barrel and he didn't have to adjust for extra windage. I cannot remember if hew as right handed or left handed. Seems like it would be more natural when shooting lefty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
July Smith Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I once saw a 94 on Armslist with a scope mount that had been badly arc welded to the side of the receiver. About wanted to cry... Personally, if I had a Winchester 94 that I wanted to put a scope on I would first try and trade it for a Marlin 336. Or pick up a budget bolt gun and leave my 94 looking classy.
