old 4x scope wanted

I've done it a time or two. my eyesight is so bad that the strength of my glasses makes the use of most iron sights impossible. I can just barely get along with a receiver sight. Somehow, I've always had difficulty getting that side mounted scope exactly on the money. I still have the mount so maybe I'll try it again, although a scope does look dorky, especially the side mount on an M94. However, if one wants to shoot and hit, one has to do whatever it takes. You can't hit it if you can't see the sights.

I know the feeling all too well. That's why I was thinking about trying one of those funky side mounts on my M94. Personally, I hate those scout mount aberations!
