I need to change to a two piece mount and try to get it more forward.

So if you know of a quality two piece LOW cantilever 1 inch scope mount for a picatinny rail, let me know.

First one I thought of was the Larue Tactical SPR-S Mount (LT158). Shorter that their other scope mounts, the center line on this one sits 1.44" above the top of the rail. Don't let the price intimidate you. You can sometimes find them second hand for much less. These are bomb proof, so I have no issue picking them up used.

Not sure if there are shorter options, but it might be worth putting the feelers out there.

Surely LaRue makes something with a longer gooseneck that would work?  I've had great luck with their products, and enjoy the QD feature's return to zero immensely.

They do... the SPR-E. This one extends the scope out further, but it will sit just a little higher above the rail than the SPR-S (short version). It depends what is more important to the man, height or distance. I think the "S" would work due to the limited rail footprint with the QD mount.

Larue Tactical SPR-E Mount (LT139)

I run the SPR-E (LT139) on my recce build. Might be too high for a lever gun, though.

@Steamedliver

A few options listed above, albeit they may be a little higher than you'd like: 1.44" center line over rail for the SPR-S and 1.5" center line over rail for the SPR-E.

This is what the base of the Larue mounts look like for reference. The only thing that could potentially interfere with the forward rail mounting screw are the two titties in the middle, but you could probably get them pretty far forward while still maximizing "rail estate."



Out of curiosity, I did some more digging and happened on the below offering from PRI, another quality manufacturer. Center line is much shorter at 1.22" over rail, which happens to be the same height as the red dot on my Delta Point Pro on my build. It also clamps on with two mounting screws, so you can probably straddle the rail screw with it. The price is right, too.

I’m not sure yet.  I have other cans so I got it specifically for 45-70, but I’m sure I’ll use it for other things as well.  I’ve already purchased a bunch of different sized end caps so I’m sure it will get some use with other rifles as well.  It seems like it will be a good choice for subgun too.

I sold my 1895.  It was cool and all, just sort of a jack of all trades and master of none.  
The case volume makes it louder than 357/44/45, lower capacity, heavier, etc.  

I don't go elephant hunting so 44/45 is my favorite by far.

I do like nice gun parts.  I’ve spent more than I should have on accessories for this 357 lever.  

I do have a slight issue spending twice the amount on the optic mount than the optic itself.  

That means I get the mount and better optic or get a less expensive mount.  

Ya know?

I do have a feeling I’ll be getting that LaRue mount, I do hate getting such an expensive mount in 1 inch diameter.

Like you said, it will just be a good excuse to upgrade your glass. These companies also make these in 30mm and 34mm, so you'll have more scope options to choose from, if that's the route you go. Good luck!

I finally feel like I can contribute again.

Same WML as before, but now it has a leather butt cuff, embossed leather sling, and a green PA ACSS prismatic optic in a LaRue LT661 mount.

The optic is so close to the rear sight that I can't turn the ocular to focus it, as the knurling hits the rear iron.  

Now I should probably get out and shoot it

Here is the product page.  It was generally designed around ARs, so probably 5.56/.300/.308.  

If they made one that had just the horseshoe without ranging hashes, I would've bought that one instead; I'm more of a "set it and forget it" kinda guy for irons and optics, & prefer simpler, more intuitive reticles designs over the crazy hashes and marks.

Here we go again... Marlin Dark 336 and Burris Scout 2-7x. Just started to mock a few things up today, but there's more in the mail from RPP, Hoptic USA, and elsewhere. Thinking about running the scope with a low Nightforce or Badger Unimount, or Larue ultra low qd rings.

It's going to be very hard to not shoot this, so I'm pretty much all in now.

No pictures, but I Shot my 1894CSBL today.  My 1894 can be a 3 or 4 MOA rifle with .357; with my .38 hand loads it's maybe 10+ MOA .

I also rediscovered that chasing a 100% zeroed load on a pistol cal lever action is stupid.  But that horseshoe on the prismatic is about perfect; donut of death, with a nice "right about here is the center-ish" aiming mechanism.

But 1894s/.357 lever actions are fun.  It's like a .22 on steroids.  Makes you slow down and enjoy each round more than an AR, but not quite to the "make every round count" shenanigans of a single shot.

I'll get pics up after it's outfitted with at least an RDS, but i walked into the LGS and they had one of the Citadel Levtac-92's in 357 for $750. A bit spendy I know, but I didn't care. Plus, the MI rail, threaded barrel and fancy peep sight have got to be worth something over a standard Rossi M92 that this is based off of. It's the first one I have personally seen in stock locally. Only thing I may do besides hang shit off of it is change over to a fancy Rossi M92 wood stock. Love the tactical and wood look. As of right now, it's a black plastic stock on it. 1 of many 357 lever guns I have. It joins a couple of Marlins, a Rossi Ranch hand and a Taylors 1873. It should feel right at home in the lever area of the safe.

Love all the pics in this thread. Been wanting to jump down this rabbit hole. It was only a matter of time.

Does a silencer make you tactical enough?

I must've gotten lucky when I stumbled on a 357 dark, only one I've ever seen.  
I wanted a cst but have never seen one of those in person either.  
The action is slick, trigger is fine, and it cycles all ammo I've tried with no issue.  

Only thing I would change is real wood vs. the composite wood and 5/8 threads instead of 1/2.

It is loose, but does not rattle excessively.  It is heavy enough that a sling can attach, but it does not balance well.   At least the little I tried with it.

It's going to be very hard to not shoot this, so I'm pretty much all in now.

Some of my RPP goodies started to arrive for my 336 Scout project. Still waiting on my RPP Quick Takedown Screw and Safety Delete, as well as another Versacarry Ammo Caddy and Hoptic USA Quiver.



For the Burris Scout, I've decided to go with the Larue Ultra-Low Rings (LT-719). These rings will allow me to maintain a quick release capability and can't really be beat when it comes to clearance with this rail/scope combo. There should only be 0.125" of clearance between the lowest point of the ocular end and the rail when mounted.

This is as tactical as my lever gun gets... R92 in 44 mag.

I like that. Is that a Dr. Pearson rail mount? If so how do you like it?

It's actually a Skinner Sights R92 rail. It uses the drilled and tapped holes on more recent R92 barrels. I like it fine, but the factory supplies screws were too short (they sent me longer ones for free) and the rail itself is Weaver spec, not Picatinney spec, so you need to be careful how you mount stuff.

I had a Pearson mount but returned it -- too much hardware and bulk for what I had in mind (red dot).

Any additional pics of Tactical Leverguns out there? I'm in an 8 week waiting period for Mark to fabricate my ultra-low rings and could use a pick-me-up.

Nothing until my hybrid comes in.  I’ve been waiting since July with no end in sight.
