    Ross M10 Sporter Rear Sight

    Looking for opinions for a rear sight for a M10 sporter. The barrel has been shortened and a rear sight with elevator has been mounted on the rear of the barrel. I don't like this current setup and would like to return to a peep sight.
    The original Ross sight I find a bit bulkey and probably easy to snag in underbrush when hunting. Given that the rifle still has the original sight base are there options to mount a rear small peep that was made as an aftermarket option? Something similair to the simple low profile of a Lee Enfield No4 MK2 sight would be nice, maybe there is some kind of adapter kit available? I don't really want to start drilling and tapping holes!
    Just checking to see if anybody might know if there is anything available.

    Thanks

    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.
