    Interesting question.. on these, there is a very shallow dovetail machined near the top edges of that rail on top - whereas on the older version the rail was plain, no dovetail. I'd not trust it with anything heavy, but I'm going to try either a light scope (SMK 4x28, surpisingly usable and small/light), or a red rot. The recoil is pretty low, but when I say those dovetails are fine...
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    I'm going to order one in.22 when the wages go in and fancied a low power scope or red dot for it...

    If anyone is thiking of ordering one, I'd suggest trying to pair up with someone else, as the shipping price of 20 Euro is the same for 1 or 2. Similarly, the foreign payment from the bank is much the same price when paying for 1 or 2 (~£10), so you save about £30 total if you get a pair. Ends up £70 each delivered.
