Got a rear sight for the first step in de sporterizing my rifle, now I need help mounting it to my rifle

This is the sight I bought but it doesn’t come with any of the mounting hardware and I’m struggling to find it online, does anyone know where I could pick some up in the USA?

How good are these scope mounts for a no4 mk1?

I am planning on getting a new scope mount that will allow me to use a rear sight on my rifle, since mine has been removed by the previous owner, are these style of scopes reliable for hunting? And are they easy to remove if I want to use stripper clips on a range day?

Looking to remilitarize and turn my sporterized Lee enfield into a hunting machine, and I wanna start with the scope/rear sight before I save up for a reproduction wood stock

I found a mounting system for scopes from the brand badacetactical, and I know that ones used as a no drill/tap mounting system that still allows for the rear sight to be on the rifle. I believe this rifle has been drilled/tapped and no longer has its rear sight, is it still possible to remove this mount and replace it with the bad ace tactical one and install a new rear sight?

New owner of a Lee enfield pt2, need some cleaning advice

Made an earlier post about my first Lee enfield rifle, and now I’m realizing I’m not sure if I have the right stuff to clean it. I’ve got a nylon, and brass brush, as well as a jag point for my cleaning cloths for a 30 caliber barrel. For my Henry lever rifle I use Break Through CLP and Hoppes no 9 bore cleaner. from what I can see online the clp isn’t ideal for these rifles. What is your preferred solvent and oil for these older rifles? I intend to use it as a hunting rifle if that changes what is typically used

Hello, new owner of an enfield here, won a sporterized version from an auction for 150$

I know what a lot of people would do is try to restore this with wood furniture and stuff, but I plan on using this rifle for hunting deer and elk here in the US. Are there any companies that sell full length synthetic stocks for these rifles?

Looking to have this hat copied at a local shop, what do I ask for?

Found this hat at a thrift store , bought it to see if I liked it, and I’d like to have it redone in a more custom fitted fashion. What style of hat is this? It’s like a soft crushable felt. I do a lot of fishing in rain and sun so I’d like to have one made from beaver felt
