Can you post a picture or two of the rear peep on the Leupold QR mount? I have been tinkering to do the same with an EGW rear peep. Please and Thank you !


Here's one for sale on eBay:

And here is a base with one already mounted as they used to come from the factory:
Redfield base with folding peep
Of course, the Leupold QR bases don't come with these so I had to get the drill and taps needed to put the two 2-56 screws in the back of the Mauser's rear base to mount it.
I scored a handful of these old flip up peeps long ago so I got the screws, drills, and taps needed to install them and use them on any rifles that they will fit on. Need to make sure they will clear the bolt (if applicable) when planning the install.

Cheers,
