We got my dad a 452 Lux in .22 WMR for Christmas, and he was shopping around for a set of rings to mount a Bushnell 3200 3-9 on it. I told him he was probably going to need a set of rings that would work with the 11mm dovetail, and sent him the recommendations from Eric Brooks' site.
The first set he picked up were too low to clear the rear sight without removing it (which he didn't want to do) so he ordered a higher set and is waiting on those to arrive.
In the meantime he took it out for some plinking, and when he was cleaning it up afterwards, he called to tell me the receiver markings say it is a
'CZ 452-2EZKM American'
Soooo....it's very definitely got the Lux stock and sights...so is it just the Lux barrel screwed into an American receiver? Does this mean he can probably use regular 3/8" rings rather than 11mm? It does appear that the dovetail is 3/8" at the bottom and cut to 45 degrees, pretty much the same as my 453 American.
Kind of odd...was wondering if any of you have any ideas as to how we might have wound up with such a thing.
