Try one of the Aussie collectors, Field side mounts for the SMLE and No4/5 are ten a penny in Australia.

I wish they were, actually a rather rare item, I could do with one right now, it would save a fair bit of fabrication.

Are you starting from scratch Muffer or going from a pattern ? It was in another thread that Surpmil quoted the use of a Russian PU scope mount, but it was for a No4, but think it would go on a SMLE without too much trouble, I,m borrowing my mates to have a look.
