So having bought the EBR Mod1 I'm looking to do this with it:

I have the stock, I've found the grip but I'm having no luck with that scope mount. Anyone got any ideas as to where I might find one? It looks like an offset rail but the plate below it seems to be dovetailed into the mount at the front of the rear sight...

HOLY SHITBALLS! They're not cheap!

Having exercised a bit of google-fu it appears that specific mount is made by Sage and costs $200. Plus nobody seems to want to ship to the UK.

Why do I always want the most expensive bits? :(

Yeah. Bugger that though! I can't justify spending damn near the cost of the gun to mount a £70 scope! :D

I have found a similar setup that I'm going to aim for though:

The scope I've found comes with an offset mount but it has rail sections on the scope rings. Not sure I like it but we'll see what it's like before I take the plunge on a LaRue style one like the one above.

You could always grind the rails off

I had to do that on my G36 slightly to fit my flip up sight

 
I love the la rue style mounts, it works really well with the ebr :)

To be fair it's a case of buy a scope without mount for £75 or buy almost the exact same scope WITH a mount for £80. Bit of a no brainer really. If the mount's crap I'll junk it and get the LaRue stylee one.

 
Developments are afoot! Found a site that sels that mount and have it reduced to $99 at the minute! Just need to find someone to ship it to me now. They won't ship internationally :(
