DefaultM14/M1A1 Scope Mounting Instructions

Anyone have a copy of the instructions for installing a side mount on an M14/M1A1?

The only instructions I can give you with that mount is "Don't bother. It won't stay tight."

Try a Bassett or Sadlak.

M14sRock, not that it matters much now, but on the Accuracy Speaks mount the rear sight is still able to be used again as is the stripper clip guide.
Although, I don't know why anyone would want to go back.

Yes, the mount can be removed and the rear sight and clip guide re-installed.

I've been very satisfied, for years, with my ARMS m21/14 #18 SWAN NSN 1240-01-316-0055 ... and they can still be had for under $200.00.
