But once you sick of the rifle and want to sell let me know

"if" I sell - I prob would offer back to prior owner 1st
He sold to fund a new scope, I feel I have acquired one of his prized toys - maybe not ??

Can you elaborate (for a dumb bugger) what
"mill off dovetail d&t weaver rail" means exatly
You meaning tap/screw Weaver Rail ontop of dovetail ???

Have seen a baikal where the dovetail was milled (machined off) right at the base (at red line) so you end up with a flat top. Than that flat base been drilled and tap for a weaver rail.

Will do the same thing to our Baikal at some point as the rail isn't quite straight and just makes it easier to put a scope on where I want it.

MassiveAttack had his done too @Sarvo

I got sent the wrong Delta sight
I got the
Delta Optical MiniDot 2
Anyone want it "at landed cost to me" let me know otherwise I will send back to Europe

Was meant to get the much more advance (and expensive)
Delta MiniDot HD 26

Cost of the MiniDot 2 would be $95 (will chuck in postage)

The top surface of the Baikal is flat so you can simply drill and tap that and attach a weaver rail (or piccatinny). Taking it down to the red line in the above image, you will also need to address the ramp at the back and it also leaaves less depth the tap for a good grip as it will need to be a blind tap / thread. Easies way is to look at something like these...Weaver - Scope Mounting Systems -T-22 Base Pair Converter or
