Title: short rail for a Mueller sight
Post by: killdee on March 05, 2011, 04:04:35 PM
I need a short rail for a single shot H&R to take when I get it drilled and tapped, where are yall finding the short Picaninny ones with multiple slots? The weaver I have on the 1300 only gave me 1 choice to mount it and its longer than needed.

Alot of us are cutting the base to the desired size.

OK, so where is the best place to get a Picatinny rail for this purpose? The more I look the more confused I get. :help:

Thanks

You can buy them from HR.  I may be wrong, but I figure the Handi rifle base would fit.  Give H&R a call to see if that's true.  Weaver may have one as well, they have a chart on their site.

I found this rail at walmart that has multi slots in it. Any reason this wouldnt work since I have to get drilled and tapped anyway?
