TWO questions on mosin nagant/scope/clips

[Zack]

So what scope mount fits a mosin nagant m44? I am looking for a scope mount/rail???? so I can mount a basic $100-$250 scope onto.

Can you leave stripper slips loaded with ammo?(not in the gun but on the clip itself) it's not going to be to tight and crush/effect the brass caseing?

 

[pkoch62]

Stripper clips can be left loaded indefinitely.

Do you have a scope on yours?

 

[JHK94]

There are scope mounts that fit as a replacement for the tangent sight, but they require a long eye relief scope (like a pistol or scout rifle scope). As far as I know, if you want a normal scope, you will have to drill and tap the rifle, and bend the bolt.

I would rather not drill into any part of my mosin nagant lol I would rather get the scope mount like you said.
Do you know of any good types?

L ook on E-Bay, there are a bunch of scopes and mount combo's for sale cheap.

So just those cheapo $15 ones? How does that work? I see they place it forward end of the barrel and its such a long ways down to even look into the scope......... I saw some PU scope mounts w/scope want $250 NO WAY! ...... I like the PU scope mount but its $100 alone.... I like the side view.
