Not sure but the adapter I tried that didn't work as it was too wide was $50. Heck I may just go the route of getting the first set I tried and milling enough off of each side to make them fit. They are recessed so I can't just grind/file/sand them off.

The only thing I've seen so far are these but man they are TALL! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBKGix2iQwo

Looks like I'll need a mount that will fit a 8.5mm rail system. Still Searching. :)

No luck. Now I'm a man with a mission. Time to scour the internet. Heck if I had a mount I could modify I'd be happy and that may be the route I have to go if I don't find anything. :(

This is getting more interesting. No one seems to carry anything that will fit. They all swear it's a 3/8" rail but when they try every 3/8" rail they have they are all too large. I did have one guy who is also into high end air rifles tell me it was an 11mm which doesn't make sense as 3/8 is roughly 9.5mm but he may be on to something though. I'm on hold right now with Pyramid Air to see if they have anything that will fit.

I'm 53 and also learned on this rifle. It's a solid build and very reliable for sure. I picked up a cheap BSA 2.5-8x36 scope today to slap on it. (Still saving for a quality scope for my Larue Preditar 7.62). :thumb:

Thanks, I just shot them an email to see if they have anything that might work. :)

I just dug out my dads old Sears JC Higgins semi automatic rifle. It was produced for sears by High Standard. The problem I'm running into is that I can't seem to find any scope mounts for this thing. The scope has 1" tubes but the rail is VERY narrow. I tried the Millet TP00702 Tip Off rings from a local gun store which is the smallest one they had in stock. It was just barely too big. I could slide it on the rail with the mounts snug so it was close. Anyone know where I might find a smaller rail mount that would work. When I measured the rail it is at 3/8 of an inch wide. No pics yet but here's an internet pic of this particular model:
