I have decided that I am going to shoot my IS's all summer for CQB, and that I will simply add a scope on a quick release for SR/DM (not sure of the scope yet; torn between the afford-ability of the FM and the endorsement of TimK of the Elcan).

Could you guys suggest a good quick-release scope mount?

Thanks!
 
It depends on the scope you select... if you go with the FM then this is the Quick Detach scope mount is what I went with:

Here is a listing of their QD Rifle Scope Mounts...

Oh, and to raise the scope up a bit, I attached the QD Rifle Scope Mount on a riser...

However, I don't think you would want these items if you got an Elcan.
 
There are many much better sights for SR/DM competition than the Elcan. For what an Elcan costs, there are many other superior options. Why even consider a sight that requires a tool for windage adjustment? Or is fixed focus? The Elcan is just about QD, which is perhaps a good thing. If, for some reason, you decide to go with the Elcan, a QD mount is irrelevant.
The FM will handle SR/DM/CQB in a workmanlike fashion. I have used mine successfully from 500 to 5 meters. There are other choices in this price range which will also prove to be satisfactory.
