Scope mounts have been a part of Vernon, Texas since before the turn of the century. The first trials were held in 1903 and 1904 to determine if a Scope Mount would be a good addition to the town’s arsenal. At that time, there was only one rifle range in Vernon and shotguns were not yet popular enough to warrant their own mount. It was decided that scope mounts should be added to the arsenal as an option for hunters and shooters. The first single-gun telescope mounting facility was built in 1911 by J.P. Shaver, who also owned the town’s only grocery store at that time. By 1912, Shaver had developed his own mount system which became known as the “Shaver Scout” system.The “Shaver Scout” system used two heavy cast iron posts with three Weaver-style eye cups (later replaced by Aligner arms)mounted on either side of a standard V-shaped crossbar which connected directly to the rifle barrel via an axle. With its unique design it allowed users to adjust magnification from 100 yards down to 3 yards with ease while still keeping accuracy within +/- 10 yards at 100 yards using common riflesights at that time In 1915, Vernon began building their own turreted riflescope mounts which continued into production until 1918 when they switched over to Millett optical sights production for all their riflescopes In 1929, Vernorshire Rifle & Pistol Company opened up shop in Vernon and began producing scopes under their own name From 1930 through 1935, Shaverscope manufactured Schmidt & Bender target focus scopes under license from Vernorshire Rifle & Pistol Company By 1936, all riflescopes produced by Vernorshire Rifle & Pistol Company had been phased out and replaced by Millett optics products During World War II, Vernon experienced rationing and most of their cannons and firearms were destroyed or diverted elsewhere due to wartime restrictions However, some old guns such as shotguns were salvaged and brought back into service with new stocks . In 1946, Shaverscope resumed manufacture of target focus scopes under license from Millett Optical Industries Incorporated After World War II ended in 1945, Vernorshire Firearms Corporation closed down completely due largely to continuing competition from MILLET Optics products introduced during postwar America

Scope mounts are a type of mounting system used to attach a scope or otherocular device to the barrel of a firearm. Scope mounts typically use either Picatinny rails or Weaver rails, which provide attachment points for various accessories, such as optics and lasers. Scope mounts allow shooters to see their surroundings clearly while hunting or target shooting, as well as increase accuracy by providing better views through the scope. Additionally, some scopes come with built-in sighting devices, which makes it easy to track your prey while hunting.

In 1916, Captain John A. Sinnott of the United States Navy developed a new type of watertight mount for rifles that allowed them to be carried on warships.

The Scope Mount is still in use today as an infantry rifle mount.
