I recently picked up a Monson 15 in .357 and absolutely love it. It came with 2 grips, 2.5" and 6" barrel. I just added an EWK 6" slab to the collection. I'm planning on working up loads for deer hunting. Any suggestions on how to mount a scope or red dot on the EWK barrel? Could I have the shroud milled to accept scope rings or have a rail mounted? My eyes aren't quite what they used to be and I've gotten used to red dots and scopes shooting bullseye. Looking forward to no more snow so I can get outside with the .357 rather than .38 indoors!

kgs I sure like the look of that slab side barrel. Definitely my favorite. I have a couple revolvers with similar barrels and really find them aesthetically pleasing (S&W 625 V Comp and Rossi Cyclops).
Congrats on your new revolver and good luck on the EWK's sight base!

kgs, congratulations on your new Dan, thats a good looking combo! On the matter of a scope base, I have one of Eric's 8" BA's, and his recommendation was to use a Weaver 410 rail. The radius is the same as that on the BA. Eric d&t the shroud for this base,with the base extending forward over the shroud. I found that with my eyes, I needed the scope closer so I turned the base to extend back over the frame. I had to remove a little metal from the base to clear the frame, but it was easy and I think worked out great.
Hope this info helps, and good luck and enjoy your Dan!
