I recently purchased a 1930's Merkel combination gun that has dovetail scope bases and it appears that the rings use levers to secure the scope. I know claw systems were most common but I'm hoping someone might have photos of rings for this set up. I will be making rings and bases with or without knowing specifically what the Merkel items looked like but I'd like it to be as time authentic as possible.
I have a 6x Zielvier and a 22mm 2 3/4x Ziel-Dialyt and haven't decided for sure which I'll use but probably the Ziel-Dialyt.
Thanks for any help that is offered.

Here are some photos of the bases.
