Scope base & rings
Left-hand actions often need a left-hand-specific base — a right-hand base will not fit. Check the fitment notes before ordering.
Primary Arms Brownells EuroOptic
Riflescope
A 3–9x or 2.5–10x covers nearly all hunting distances and keeps weight down.

Sling
Carry side is personal — a simple two-point sling works from either shoulder.
