Well the doctor says I can’t shoot rifles for a little while so I have c have been talking to Lee at The Arms Room about converting my Model 71 to a takedown and adding a Ruger No 1 quarter rib to it to mount a scout scope. Do I need a takedown? Not really but I have always wanted one and they just look so cool. I think the Ruger rib will look a little better than just a picatinney rail on it. I will use the Alaska Arms QD rings on it and I am pretty sure I will put the Burris 2.75x scout scope on it. The rifle is not a collector grade and has extra holes so I am not mutilating a pristine example. Bad thing is the 6 month to a year wait.
