Recently acquired an older (80's) Heym SR20 in left hand. The seller misidentified it's existing scope bases as Weavers, they are not...
They look like a proprietary German set and I stand zero chance of finding rings to match.
Has anyone had any luck finding bases that fit this model in North America? At this point I'm not picky about manufacturer just need something that's available.

Logistics involved.

Have you tried Leupolds scope base selector charts ?

Reliable on Fraser and or ISG in Vancouver as well.

This is a short thread from another forum:

... looks like Mauser 98 mounts might fit. The receivers look very similar.

Thanks 9.3mauser, golden info right there... I was ready to order some Weaver-type mounts (Recknagel) from Slovenia, of all places, that are made specifically for the SR20.
I think I'll hold off for now, source the bases your link suggests and give it a try.

Edited to add: Found the rear base at a local CT, now I will source the harder to find front steel Warne base...
