I had recently bought a new model 12 4x4 in .204 and was excited about getting my vortex crossfire
mounted on it...so I cheesed out and bought a weaver one piece base for it.... I figured it
would be a good short term solution until I could discretely source an egw base for it....

Base went on fine...everything looked good..until I went to cycle the bolt...nada.
Locked up solid.

So I figured I'd reverse my steps...scope off...started undoing the screws on the base and everything
freed up.

The screws in front are too long... :-[ :-[ :-[
Weaver goes into the toolbox for future reference and surgery on the screws...

I can obtain a blackhawk mount locally.. Any thoughts on those or should I hold out on an
EGW ?
