Rifle Scopes Dual Dovetail Marine Corp. mount?

[Robert405]

I was watching the history of the Marine Corp Scout/Sniper on the History Channel this morning. Near the end, they were documenting the current school and showing some quick pics of thier modern rifles. I saw what appeared to be a one piece dual dovetail type mount and rings on the rifles. Any idea who manufactured them and if they are currently available?

You sure it wasn't the M40a1 mount? They look similar but the rings are brazed in place to make a one piece ring/rail mount.

That certainly looks the same from the quick look I got. Is it available anywhere?

I got mine from USO when they did a custom build for the MST-100's and there are some of the old Unertls still to be found used, but I don't think anyone is making new ones anymore. John at USO may still have a couple sets lying around. Hope it helps.
