Yes, the top of the receiver is drilled and tapped for scope mounting, and the rifle is supplied with an offset hammer spur extension for use when a scope is mounted. You can add a pic rail for greater versatility >>> https://www.amazon.com/Marlin-1894-Picatinny-Scope-Mount/dp/B004VILI4Y Stay safe & have a great day!
