I'm 72 now and my dad was a machinist, until he passed I never needed the machines, I worked in the shop with him and did all the hand fitting so I'm pretty good with files and he did the big stuff.
Low rings I did for my JP Sauer with just a hacksaw, files, calipers and mics. it took almost two months of fooling with it, but as you can see it turned out ok.
Original 6x48mm scope on it.
Just lowering the scope and going from a 6x to 1.5x changed the whole characteristics of the drilling going from a weapon more suited to hunting from a blind to a fast handling hunting rifle, not much different than a DGR.
