CANTILEVER SCOPE MOUNT

Is there a way to remove this type of scope mount on a shotgun barrel? Silver soldered on maybe? Not sure. Thanks

Not knowing the model of the gun, probably just take a 7 inch right angle welding grinder with a 36 grit stone. Might have to put the gun barrel in a vise. (make sure the gun is unloaded) and use eye protection.
To quote my favorite gunsmith Jack "If you have a torch and a hammer, it has to fit"
I would suspect that it is high temp silver soldered on, not milled with the barrel. You will need "red" heat, propane torch is doubtful. Will need some sort of re-finishing. I agree easier to sell and buy one without.
