Posted: Tue Oct 30, 2007 6:41 am Post subject: re: Deerslayer scope mount ? ---- Those notches were developed back when the rear sight base went to a pot metal. Originally they were machined steel with dovetail cuts. They were originally designed that way to accomidate a Leupold long eye relief scope, and Redfield rings. Redfield had these rings made specially for Ithaca Gun Co., Inc. which Ithaca sold as parts items, or sold new on the gun. Today this type of mount is kind of out of date with all the scopes available today for shotguns. Thanx!

www.diamondgunsmithing.com If your question is what scope mount fits the M87 and M37 Deerslayer IIs & IIIs (1987-present), the answer is all scope monts designed to fit the Remington 760s (not 7600). These models with their barrels fixed to the recveivers are all drilled and tapped on the top of the action with this hole configuration. A gunsmith can open up the holes and retap them to fit the larger Rem 7600 mount screws for more mounting options, but since there are four screws, this is not needed for strength. The hole placement is the same on the Rem 760 and Rem 7600, but the screws are a different size. Exactly why Ithaca would not have gone with the more modern, larger screw size is a question that will never be answered, as the "company" has declared bankruptcy twice, moved locatiuons twice and changed owners 3 times since then. A-Square makes a great weaver style aircraft alum. mount for Rem 760 with multiple mounting slots for the most options in scope placement on an Ithaca. Lee Duer

Can you mount a scope on a Ithaca m49 mag?
Yes, you can mount a scope on an Ithaca M49 Magnum, but it typically requires the use of a specialized scope mount or adapter, as the rifle does not come with factory scope mounting provisions. Additionally, some modifications may be necessary to ensure proper alignment and stability. It's important to choose a mounting option that doesn't interfere with the rifle's operation or aesthetics.
