[QUOTE="Seedy, post: 1128866, member: 10694"] As some of you may be aware, my Father was recently thinking about selling his 1970's Belgium made Browning .22 semi auto rifle... ...I talked him into keeping it. :) NOW he wants to "tacticool" it :idea: No...not quite "Archangel" level tacticool...let me explain: The rifle is used primarily at the Lake House for "nuisance animal" eradication. Most of the shooting takes place at night (I hope I didn't just admit to breaking some law). The target area where the "nuisance animals" are usually found has a flood light system installed and wired to a switch. What my Father wants: Inexpensive red dot scope on pic/weaver rails and a laser pointer, possibly a light. The rifle is drilled and tapped for a scope mount. I believe this was done at the factory. I don't have the dimensions on hand, but can get them if needed. I have looked online, but can't seem to figure out what pic/weaver base will fit on that rifle. I'm also trying to figure out how to put a laser on the rifle without "taping" it on somewhere. So what I need from Yall is suggestions on what parts I will need to "trick his Browning". [B] Dream big, dream crazy...Help me find the right base, suggest a decent inexpensive "red dot", and figure out how we also give him a laser (maybe one of those YHM or DD angle rails?). [/B] Go nuts folks...Assuming he doesn't change his mind (again) I'll post pics of the final result. [/QUOTE]
