I am trying to understand how an after market scope stop is going to stop a scope from moving when there is not a hole or pin built into the receiver. If all there is is the groves what is to keep the scope stop from moving along with the scope when the gun recoils?
Would the plastic piece at the rear of the receiver stop the scope from moving?

Quite a lot of rifles are made without scope stops, I should assume that the manufacturer decided they weren’t required, or the rifle is a cheapie.

I'm with kanyon. I guess if it were mine I would take it apart, just to be sure I wasn't drilling into something important. |

I have to admit I am a little intimidated with the idea of taking it apart. I don't really have a place to work and I am not as good at such things as I used to be. |
