Hey guys I got a colt 4x20 scope and it dosent have the mount. any ideas where I can find a replacment?? a scope like this?....without the mount? 
I guess you could get a cheap chinese copy and steal the mount off of it (probably won't be able to use the chinese phillips head screws though) and throw the "scope" away and not be out much

I just got a clone so that I could use the carry handle mount on an Armalite 2.75x20 scope. The transplant will be delayed until I know more about the nitrogen leaky thingy. Link to Clone |

Here's a real 3x20. The screws go into the scope body and I've no clue is they penetrate the scope tube or not. Never seen one without the base.
And on my .22LR M&P15-22:

I believe that's considered a late 3x scope that was "made in japan" but was distributed by Colt ...so I guess it comes down to your definition of "real", as mentioned Colt didn't make any of 'em. The one I have is even later and has the stylized Colt logo but I consider it "real" and correct for an early to mid eighties firearm such as my SP1 carbine

Colt had to go to Japan to get quality optics. Mine is made in Japan for sure. As genuine Colt as all those Colt USGI magazines. It's called OEM.
