Hello I am interested in getting a receiver sight for my SMLE it is a #1 MKIII* (with the round receiver and sight on the barrel), 2 questions; question 1: with product 1362 and 1364, are these compatible with my SMLE #1 MKIII*? and question 2: with any of these sights (1362, 1364 and 1420), is there any requirement to partially dismantle the sight to remove the rifle's breech? - does anybody know?

Williams sight

I have a williams sight that mounts to the right rear side of the receiver. I have to remove the sight arm to allow the passage of the boilt head when I retract the bolt to remove it.

Mine has a press button release which makes it quick and easy to remove the arm. There is also a stop screw to maintain the setting when I put it back. Some of the sights require the use of a screwdriver to undo which would be a pain.
