I have a 93 mauser that has scope mounts on it already. They are weaver heres the problem. When I tryed to bore site the scope I found that the mounts are not level they are about 1/8 of a inch off. I looked in brownells catalog to see if I could order another set and see if they old owner just put on the wrong mounts but can not find a listing for a 93 mauser anybody know where I can get a set? Or does anyone have a set.

  If your mounts are actually of Weaver manufacture they should have a small number on the top, such as 46. You are correct that the current Weaver chart does not specifically list the model 93, but it does list the model 95, and the two are usually very, very close in specs.--the only significant difference being that early 93's had a flat bottom at the front of the bolt for pushing cartridges from the magazine. This was found to be unnecessary and was changed to a round bolt on the '95. The Spanish continued to manufacture the '93 for many years and changed the bolt to round, but it is still called a '93. But the receivers are very close, and according to the chart you should have a number 45 on the rear and a 46 on the front. If that's what you've got, and the rear is too low, try a 55 on the rear and a 46 on the front. These are about $4.00 apiece, widely availabe; so you can afford to experiment a little.

  Der if you see this thanks I will try what you have said. Yes The bottom of my bolt is flat so it must be a 93.
