I believe that most new manufactured scope mounts in the original style have gotten rid of the need for the notch but it's also been a few years since I looked into putting a scope on my SVT 40 so I may not be remembering correctly. You can also ask Canadaguns as SVT40's are more common up here.
Oct 17, 2023 · The whole scope mount grooves on a 1942 receiver still bugs me a little but I can't imagine that is a Bubba modification and I have to assume it was one of the very few 1942 Tula/#314 SVT-40s that were in fact made with them.

Between 1938 and 1940, the Soviet political elite was embroiled in a debate over whether it would be Simonov’s or Tokarev’s rifle that would enter full-scale production, a debate that was ended with politics rather than merit.
The AVT-40 acts more as the vanilla version of the weapon, being used without a scope. Therefore, we will need this in closer and more intense situations compared to the SVT-40, which can sit and snipe enemies. The AVT-40 only requires a single modification and will balance out the ergonomics due to the lack of scope. The ...
