IMHE,
It is remarkably easy to exchange good quality optics on several rifles,
provided the optics have ‘tip-off’ (Picatinny or Weaver) type rings,
and all rifles have a properly installed Picatinny 1913 (or NATO) spec rail.
The qualifying adjectives are ‘good quality’ and ‘properly installed’.
The Picatinny 1913 (and the current NATO) rail specifications were specifically developed to enable quick and accurate exchange of optics as conditions and mission requirements require.
The optic must have mechanical adjustments that are accurate and precise, and the rail must be properly aligned with the bore.
Caution: All slotted rails are NOT proper Picatinny (or NATO) spec.
Good Luck, YMMV.
