[QUOTE="ltdavel, post: 729424, member: 7853"] I own a 70's vintage Model 94 that is not an angle eject. When I bought it used it was drilled and tapped for a side mount and came with an old steel tube Weaver 3X scope. I was not happy at all with that mounting system as I believe that it threw the gun out of balance and I had to sight with my head over to one side. It made the gun very "klunky" and uncomfortable to carry and fire. If you can find a mount that will put the scope over the center line of the receiver you should be okay with the balance of the rifle. I'd stick with a low magnification - maybe a 1.5 or 2X on the low end if you can find one - because you're still looking at a 150-200 yard gun at the most. [/QUOTE]
