    Help identifying M96 diopter hole pattern

    Hello! I just bought my first M96 rifle and I'm trying to figure out the mounting hole pattern that was tapped into the rear of the action. From what I've found online most hole patterns are in an offset fashion, however mine are directly parallel. I'd ideally like to find a diopter that matches this patten and add it to the rifle. Thanks in advance for the help!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    You do have problems as there were around 12 made for the 96, but seeing as how you are in the USAicon and Bubba seems to pop up regularly tampering with rifles, I would try a Lyman No 48
