Good Day Ladies and Gents:

I bought a new Bushnell Model TRS125 Red Dot Sight for my Merkel 141 E. The Ring on the scope has a weaver style attachment.

I bought the scope because I got a hell of a deal for it and if I don't like it, I will put it on my 45-70 lever action.

The base that came with the Merkel rifle appears to be a blank. Or perhaps it is designed for a Doktor Optik. In any case, can someone reccomend the correct base so that I may mount the scope to my gun.

I have been told by others here that the bases used by Merkel are Recknagel. A base make and model number would be greatly appreciated.

Kindest regards,

carpediem

Sorry Guys:

The Model of scope is TRS25, ot 125.

Come on you guys. Somebody out there in double rifle land has got to have some suggestions.

EAW manufactures a mounting base to attach an aimpoint to the rear base of the Merkel but I don't know if it takes the standard Weaver type mount. The mount number is 2700/056. Has anyone else used this mounting plate and does it allow for a weaver style mount to be attached?

I sent an e-mail to EAW last week but have yet to hear from them.

Kindest regards,

Carpediem

Check with Trijicon.
