You can mount a 5C over a Mk1 sight - although you have to grind the battle sight off, and also have to choose a 5C eyepiece that wont foul the sight at low elevation settings (or use an elevated foresight block to compensate).
The Mk1 sight acts as a rigid spacer that prevents a through-bolt from being over tightened.
This set-up works well for those who have just one rifle but want to shoot SRa and SRb events.
In fact on an Enforcer with an offset 5E4 sight, you can have Mk1 sight, tgt sight and scope all fitted together!
