Garand scope mount

ultrenite
I see the S & K and B-Square "no modification" scope mounts for the M1 Garand and want to know how solid they are and if "no modification" also means no damage to the gun.
I bought a B-Square for a Mauser & it was not at all satisfactory. Never would stay put & the aluminum body just would not allow for screwing things down tight. I bought a B-Square for a 1903 Springfield and it was rock solid - made from iron. The S & K I have for an Enfield is all steel & solid.
Does anyone have experience with these mounts on the Garand?

    I'm looking for a particular scope mount for my Garand.

    The mount I'm looking for requires holes to be drilled and tapped into the left side of the receiver and its available with either a Leupold or Weaver style base. I've only seen them online and unfortunately I can't remember the address or find the website. So, if anyone knows anything about this style of mount and where I could purchase one, I'd greatly appreciate it.

    By the way, I'm not worried about decreasing the collector's value of my Garand by drilling holes in its receiver because it's built on a CAI receiver. A very well built CAI if I may add, one of the few that I've found.

    If you cannot find one here on GunBroker try the CMP Traders Borad. There were some reporduction nounts for sale on Traders and you may run across originals.

    Which scope mount? Both the M1-C and the M1-D used the M82 scope, and require different mounts.

    Are you refering to the scope mount that fits onto the left side of the barrel, or the one that is mounted onto the left side of the receiver?

    M1-C? (Receiver mount) You can contact Griffin & Howe directly for a base and mount. The rings you will have to hunt for, as G&H only supply 1in rings, and the M82 takes 7/8in rings. You will need a gunsmith to install.

    M1-D? (Barrel mount) Mounts and barrel bosses usually appear on the various auction sights. More common. You will need a M1-D specific M1 Garand barrel if you want the barrel mounted scope. Maybe a gunsmith can alter your barrel, if you wish to follow that route. Best, Joe

    Fulton Armory sells a scope mount with Weaver base that requires no gunsmithing; it's $100.

    Try this - you can also buy a repro scope.
