    13mm scope mounts?

    I would like to put scopes on 2 of my old Webleys, but they have the wider scope rails which measure about 13mm.

    Could anyone point me in the direction of some solid mounts to fit a 13mm rail please ?

    Steve.

    Hi Steve, which model Webleys are these please, as all mine are 11mm std other than a MkIII with a factory spec spot welded dog bone rail, and as mounting s scope to a dog bone will ultimately lead to the inertia of many shots causing both scope and dog bone to hit the deck, my MkIII is strictly open sights only ???

    Hi Gareth,

    I have a Falcon and a Jaguar. They have both had scopes on at various times but only the cheap ones with bent sheet mounts.

    Ahh my old Falcon had the dog bone rail, too, and my Jaguar had nowt (so must've been really early ). Would strongly advise against mounting to a dog bone, for the reasons as stated above, as in time, it will sheer the spot welds, but if you really want to up the game and use a proper scope and mounts, try and source a set of pre '78 HW mounts as they were 13mm . Hope this helps. Atb: G.
