Be Well, RZ.

I have Quad Locks and they work well.

I'd lose some of the vintage effect and those rings are Chicom, these are made in the USA.

But, you're right, they're very good rings and are not expensive.

I didn't get before and after weights. Should have as that would have been interesting. I'd guess it lost 2-3 oz or so, not enough to feel any difference handling it.

Edited to add, I used stuff lying around the shop, M-70 Weaver bases, several sets of Weaver rings to close from, the large attachment screws. I do have a set of low Quad Locks, but these rings look better in this setting. I used stuff I had on hand, scopes included.
