 at least two corresponding scope rings, said back ring further comprising a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       2 . A scope as described in  claim 1  wherein the plurality of indentations are formed on the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring further comprises a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       3 . A scope as described in  claim 1  wherein the plurality of indentations are formed on both the back portion of the scope stock and the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring and back scope ring further comprise a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       4 . A scope as described in  claim 1  wherein the indentations and projecting key are circular. 
   
   
       5 . A scope as described in  claim 1  wherein the indentations and projecting key are crosses. 
   
   
       6 . A scope formed with a plurality of projecting keys and further comprising:
 at least two corresponding scope rings, said back ring further comprising an indentation to mate with the plurality of projecting keys on the scope stock.   
   
   
       7 . A scope as described in  claim 6  wherein the plurality of projecting keys are formed on the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring further comprises an indentation to mate with the plurality of projecting keys on the scope stock.   
   
   
       8 . A scope as described in  claim 6  wherein the plurality of projecting keys are formed on both the back portion of the scope stock and the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring and back scope ring further comprise an indentation to mate with the plurality of projecting keys on the scope stock.   
   
   
       9 . A scope as described in  claim 6  wherein the indentations and projecting key are circular. 
   
   
       10 . A scope as described in  claim 6  wherein the indentations and projecting key are crosses. 
   
   
       11 . A scope formed of an octagonal stock and further comprising:
 a plurality of indentation on the back portion of the scope stock; and   at least two corresponding octagonal scope rings, said back scope ring further comprising a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       12 . A scope formed of an octagonal stock as described in  claim 11  wherein the plurality of indentations are formed on the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring further comprises a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       13 . A scope formed of an octagonal stock as described in  claim 11  wherein the plurality of indentations are formed on both the back portion of the scope stock and the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring and back scope ring further comprise a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations of the scope stock.   
   
   
       14 . A scope formed of three or more sides and further comprising:
 a plurality of indentations on the back portion of the scope stock; and   at least two corresponding scope rings, said back scope ring further comprising a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       15 . A scope formed of three or more sides as described in  claim 14  wherein the plurality of indentations are formed on the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring further comprises a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations on the scope stock.   
   
   
       16 . A scope formed of three or more sides as described in  claim 14  wherein the plurality of indentations are formed on both the back portion of the scope stock and the front portion of the scope stock; and
 the front scope ring and back scope ring further comprise a projecting key to mate with the plurality of indentations of the scope stock.
