Hi Archer,
Does the IHP have the scope rail?, Because I don't remember seeing one..
If there is no scope rail then you might have to do some "engineering" to mount the scope...
Scopes tend to be pretty expensive in India..

Archer,
From your post I get the impression that you think you can choose from a wide range of scopes easily and/or cheaply in Bombay.
I am afraid that isn't so and almost any decent scope you buy will cost more than your airgun.
I would start saving for a better air-rifle instead.

hi
Bro ranjeet has pointed out correctly, the biggest issue is that IHP airgun dont have rail for scope
. this is the biggest hinderance. so the way abt it is to get drill for screws, but i was not very comfortable with the idea.
Airgun is good, i have had that for almost 12 year. Even now i have kept it i literally grew with that gun
.
If some gurus out there can give some input to how to go abt putting scope.
Getting cheap scope, we can try ebay
thanks

Me no guru but get a real small 4x15 if possible jap scope. Then get a small metal patti cut to six inches length. Have a machinist to get it formed for your rifle, then glue it on with araldite or red loctite. That should work all right but if you can take the innards out then the mount can be welded on. This will be slightly ugly but functional. Or if the machinist is skilled enough get him to drill and tap it. There is a guy in kalkaji(new delhi) who is quite intelligent but you have to be honest with him. Then if he agrees he will do a great job.
