Drilling & tapping Stoeger M2000 shotgun for scope mount, anybody got any experience with these? Stoeger website recommends fitting for weaver model 93 base. I know the aluminum receiver will be a lil iffy, but i know people drill and tap these. Anybody? Thx, Robinhedd

I am a journeyman machinist/welder, so im pretty sure i wouldnt have any trouble with it. Thx, Robinhedd

Measure the thickness of the top of the receiver to see how much metal you have there.
Looking at photos of the receiver, it doesn't look real thick and it's rounded.
Do they sell a cantilever barrel?

I have done about 5 of them. Used a long weaver base (forget the number) and drilled and tapped 5 holes. They were all for turkey guns and have held up fine to 3 1/2" mags.

thx for the advice men. Robinhedd
