    M1D USGI Scope Mount Attaching Knob Welded?

    I just wanted to ask members who know if the original USGI M1D scope mount attaching knobs were ever welded in the center and not rivited?

    Never. If it's welded it's repro or a repaired one. They were swaged not riveted or welded.

          All I did was square the mounting pads to 75% true with a stone and add a.050 washer to plumb it up....regards....alex
