My father took a more permanent solution on his Winchester Model 54 .22 Hornet to get the comb up for the Weaver 330 installed by the great Seattle gunsmith, Bill English, in his patented "English End Lock" scope mount.

My father was a foreman at the shipyard at Winslow during WW-II and Bill was on his crew. Bill added the grip cap and forearm tip and oil finished the stock as well as fitting the scope. During my growing up years Bill English had his shop in the sporting goods department of the downtown Fredrick & Nelson department store.

The R.A. Litschert "SPOT SHOT" adapter upping the power to 6x was an early 1950s addition.
