    Default Scope Mount Question

    I have an AR-15A2, with the carry handle. I purchased an adapter that bolts on to the carry handle so I can mount a scope, then find out that my Bushell scope doesn't fit (the rail is too wide for the scope).

    My question is this, is there an adapter I can purchase to replace the mounts on my scope with ones that fit this, or should I look for a specific type of scope mount and get a new scope?

    My scope isn't the greatest, I purchased it for my AR7 for $30, but I figured as long as I HAVE a scope that's collecting dust, I would try to use it until I can buy a really nice one for the AR15.

    Thanks!

    Airsoft huh? Wow, Sportsman Warehouse could have mentioned that one... Like I said, it fits my Henry AR7 great.

    I can't figure how to post the pictures I took, it looks like they need to be hosted somewhere.

    If that doesn't work try bailing wire and JB weld. If that does not work you could try something like this

    Now, that's actually funny - since that is EXACTLY what I just got (from Cabelas as well) and cannot fit my scope on.
