Savage Arms Mark II G Monte Carlo .22 LR Blue Rifle

A: Duane, this rifle is "Drilled/Tapped" for optics mount.

A: Better than grooved, Duane, this one is drilled and tapped, to solidly mount a scope base/rail o top of the receiver, for a scope or red dot, as you choose.

A: Shawn, yes Sir. The Mark II is drilled and tapped to add a Picatinny Rail. --- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaULvvp8ZDI

A: Yeas. These rifles are ready for those type of rails.

A: The firearm is drilled and tapped for rails of your choice, so long as they're the correct size. When it comes to a good scope I guess it will depend on your budget. So I found a forum that shows these firearms with pic rails and they also talk about scopes. https://thefiringline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=477735 It was my pleasure to assist you,

A: Jonathan, yes Sir. Bolt rifles do not carry the same restrictions as Semi-Auto rifles. Details under Rifkes here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/feeds/state_reg/new_york_restrictions.pdf

A: Brian, this rifle is made in in Westfield, Massachusetts. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Brian, made by Savage, they were being made in Lakefield, Ontario, Canada. Savage bought out Lakefield. They also have a facility in Westfield, MA. Can't say for sure they are still being made in Canada. Have a great day!

A: This is manufactured by Savage arms. I'm reading all rimfire rifles are made in Canada, while center fire rifles are made in Massachusetts. I'd contact Savage arms at (800) 370-0708 for a more detailed and definite answer. Hope this helps.
