Belgium made Light 12?

 

[hodgej1843]

Thats really cool. Hope you get your uncle a great christmas gift next year

If your good with a dremel with a small cutting wheel it wouldn't be hard to take off. The hard part would be not cutting into the gun itself and grinding down the ridges. Myself I would just leave the mount on there or take it to a professional to remove it. IMHO but if you do tackle the task, good luck.

Very nice. Great uncle, too.

My great Uncle gave me a 22LR revolver....oh wait, I had to buy it at an auction.

 

[HandK]

Thats really nice, I am happy for you.

That's one cool uncle. Good luck with getting the scope mount off. If you don't think you can do it give IndyGunworks a call he may ba able to help you.

 

[CarmelHP]

Leave the mount on. You're likely to do more damage by removing it than leaving it where it is.

 

[Redemption]

It's going to take at least 1100 degrees to take that scope mount off of it. I would just leave it on, get it re-blued and make a deer gun out of it. I could take it off but I would have to charge you.

Awesome. I inherited a couple firearms from family also. It doesnt matter how crappy a firearm is if you get it from family it is a gem.

 

[Bushido Devil Dog]
