Scope Mounting Rail for the Marlin 795?

[busykngt]

Does anyone make a Weaver or Picatinny rail for scope mounting on the Marlin 795?
--
I'm aware of the DIP Picatinny rail but how does it fit on that skinny dovetail receiver that's on the 795? I see that it says, "Minor fitting may be required"...what does that mean?

It also says to mount the rail with part number towards the muzzle - that's beginning to sound like some kind of friction fit on the rifle's dovetail. (Not to mention the $30 bucks for that rail would cost more than the 3-9x40 Simmons scope I'm trying to put on there!)

Anybody know of a more economical Weaver Rail mount that's available?

I'd advise against using an adapter and just getting some .22 rings or better yet a .22 one piece mount. It's a 3/8" dovetail, and yes it's friction fit.

I've got some plain ole 22 rings on my Mod 60 and haven't had any trouble with em.
