Has anyone mounted a rifle scope on a Webley Alecto with the carbine stock?I could use more scope for my old eyes than a 2x pistol scope but am not sure how to mount a rifle scope far enough back for proper eye relief with the carbine stock that is strongly enough mounted to allow me to pump the action without bending the mount.Any advice will be appreciated.
about the only thing that come to mind is a scout style scope, here are some for examples only

I wish they had taken the top of the cocking handle and continued the weaver mount cuts, the single one up front is good for a small reflex sight but not much else
pushing down without a scope when your trying to get that 3 pump on a short barrel or 4 with the ultra can be a hand full but with a scope has never been something I wanted to do
Hammer brand scopes and has a long eye relief model and it is cheap I see them on Ebay, the quality is an unknown
Hi Mike, both were done by hand (before I had access to a machine shop). Just taped-off the cutline on both sides for a guide...
If you want a square groove and are doing it by hand, I would start with a round file first to establish the width. The round files will be somewhat self-centering if you keep them free of any chip build-up. Then finish with a square file. I've never found a square file narrow enough for those grooves (that could do heavy cutting).... have used several 32 TPI hacksaw blades clamped together instead... full-bore Flintstone ? ..
I agree that only one groove on top is pretty dumb. They should swap a few from the bottom rail -
