I agree about 1.5"

I got the same thing on my 66. I have a 71 the holes in the frame are perfect, and they take the same mounting hardware as the 66. I measured the hole on the 71 with calipers. It was 1.4". I am pretty sure the hole is the frame is 1" 7/16.

My Uncle was part of the 104th the 414th Infantry he was Killed in Action just outside of Stolberg Germany. I guess I'm just a History Buff.
