Anybody ID These 3/4" Scope Rings Please?

Very heavy steel construction and have set screws on the side.

  It looks to me like the custom made German mounts. That were actually soldered to the rifle and scope. They were individually fitted on a custom basis to a specific rifle. By a very skilled gunsmith.
  
  Some that I have seen in the past. Have the windage adjustment in the mount. With only elevation in the scope.

  They appear to be a version of old vintage sight tube {scope} mounts. They should have mounting holes at 10:00 and 2:00 as you look at them from the rear.
  If the front one [without the lever} twists 90degrees then comes apart, then they are "quick disconnect".
  The rear mount may have some adjustment in it for wind age.
  
  Here is a pic of similar ones used on Maynard target guns.

  Take the brass bushings out and measure the inside diameter; if metric, then they are European.

  How does the scope tube put in? Slide in from the end?

  Yeap.
  look at my link above.
  See pics 14 an 15. Many old tube sights used slip on eye pieces that held the lenses.

  German High Turret mounts, possibly off a K98, that someone modified by inserting 3/4" bushings for a small diameter scope.
  
  Are there any proof marks or eagles on them?

  I don't think anyone would put a set screw in a ring to hold a scope in this way with success.
  I think, my .03
  The set screw is to hold a solid steel gage rod to align some sort of fixture for machining. The holes below the rings are use for leverage, using a rod to bring it into close tolerance using dial indicators.
  I have see something like this in set-ups in machining.
