Can't take pictures until we get the new scope bases. gyeomens has a set that should fit and we will be getting them in the morning when we shoot up that way. The improvised duct tape, tie-wire and zapstrap scope mounting kit from Target Canada truly takes away from the beauty of the gun which has definitely drawn a crowd every time its perched on a pedestal at the range. When you say it will shine in the summer Jeff, is it because of the sun glare I'm going to have to overcome from the high polished metal or your saying its easier to shoot in warmer weather?
