I have a Swiss K31 with what appears to be a decent bore. Since I can't see open sights very well, I thought I'd try to mount a scout scope. Anyone have any suggestions as to a good brand to go with? Also, I have two Burris EIR scopes, one is a two power, the other is a four. My main use is to poke holes in paper and maybe take it deer hunting. Thanks for any and all help.

If you should decide you'd like a traditionally-located scope, St. Marie Products makes a very good no-drill, no modification scope mount that is economical and effective. It locates over the receiver, and removes with allen wrenches. They currently make an aluminum version, and previously made a somewhat more expensive steel version which appears to be discontinued. I have used the steel version on 2 K-31's with excellent results.

They have a 3/8" rail allowing an unbroken range of placement for the rings to accomodate your eye relief preferences and the location of your scope turrets. While the 3/8" rail may not sound effective, it is; in my testing, full-power match and Swiss service ammunition grouped well with no tendency of the rings to shift. You can find them by searching on "Swiss Products."

My K-31's are going up for sale, so if you decide you are interested in the steel version of the mount, I will be happy to sell below my original cost. These are well proven and accepted in the K-31 enthusiast community.

Hope this helps,

John
