Greetings, new member here

Howdy, I found a decent Marlin .22 at a pawn shop and bought it. Cleaned it up and refinished the stock and gave it to my grandson (16 years old). I took him to the range today to shoot it and several of my other rifles. He is a crack shot and the Marlin is a tack driver.

It needs a scope to fully make use of it's shooting ability. It does not have a scope rail but is drilled and tapped for a scope mount. Any suggestions on finding a scope mount for it?

Model 80 .22

Thanks for above replys. It is a Marlin Model 80 .22 clip fed bolt action. With a very nice trigger pull that could be improved some, any recommendations?
