Title: Remington 1187 scope base
Post by: SC_WILDMAN on March 04, 2012, 08:43:30 AM
I'm getting my 20 ga 1187 drilled and tapped so i can mount my red dot on it. Does any one know what scope base i should use? Thanks for any help.

I was told by my gunsmith that the top of the 20 ga 1187 was to thin for D&T to mount a scope on it. It may be different for a dot type sight. I found at Brownells, a Da-mar mount that attaches by 6 holes D&T on the radius area(3 on each side )of the receiver. I haven't ask him about that but it specifically has one model made for the 1187 rem 20 ga.

Thanks Flyrodder. I checked on that site and it looks like it would work great.
