Offset Scope Mounts

Machining offset scope bases for target shooters. I made the piece that goes on the scope rail on the rifle, and then I can cut the remaining pieces so that the offsets will fit the distance between the pupils of the eyes. The distance between the center of the eyeballs, even in the same person, are not the same. I have personally been shooting offset sights for three or four years now, and I find that it has improved my shooting.

Shipping Labels on Stock

This stock blank has been around for a few years. Notice that this was before zip codes! This is a piece of curly Myrtle that will become a prone stock for a short range 52 rim fire.
