A friend may be offering up a mid 1950s Browning A5 that has been gunsmith-converted to an 18.5" Bbl "Whippit" format.
It has a vent rib barrel with a single bead, and I know there are some great sight options for them. But I am curious, as they say.
Has anyone here mounted a red dot sight on an A5 or Remington 11, or even one of the Savage clones? Is it possible to drill and tap the receiver or is it too thin on top? And does anyone make a base for such a thing?
The thread about the shortened Model 11 with the Nydar sight got me thinking.
