Somebody on another forum epoxied a scope mount on a Carcano so it could be removed without leaving drill marks. If the propane removal method doesn't harm the bluing, this is commendable. Anybody know what a propane torch does to a black oxide finish (bluing)?

Best Regards,

At the right temp, it turns a very nice blue. Colt used to heat blue revolvers every day. For an epoxy mount, I'd back the glue up with a couple hose clamps. Padded, of course.

You gots to protect the finish! Or Finnish if it's a 7.35 with SA mark. SW

I thought that unmentionable caliber was best left alone. Of course, why mess up a perfectly good 6.5mm M38?
