Is it a terrible idea to put a long eye relief scope in place of my rear sight on my mosin? if you slide the rear sight off, there's a 3/8 dovetail mount underneath it that you could mount a scope to. It's completely reversible and doesn't permanently alter the mosin at all, and works with the normal straight bolt.

You can do ANYTHING to your weapon. ANYTHING. You can take a blowtorch to it, smash it with a hammer, paint it pretty pretty pink and shove it up your ass.
Whatever makes your weapon enjoyable and useful to you is totally 100 percent fine. If the scope works and keeps a true zero, go goddamn crazy.

No.

Quit being a cheap-ass. Find a PU with scope. Just avoid the fakes, and good luck with that.

Try it and tell us how it is, I'm genuinely interested in trying this as well

get a jmeck and put a real scope on it. I'm pretty happy with mine. Holds zero fine, is reversible, and you don't have a goofy ass set up.

Rings will slide under recoil on that dovetail, if you insist on a scout mounted scope, you will still want a base that at the very least utilizes the rear sight cross pins to secure it.

I prefer this on my Mosin, works great
Looks ugly as hell, but if it works...
