They are not just clamped on.
The reciever will need drilling and tapping.

Can I make a suggestion forget expensive soderin sights have a look at Mojo sights products.

I have a set on my swede they take about 30 minutes to fit they replace the original ladder sight and you can swop them back in half a hour if you want .

They are a reasonable price you can shoot from 100yds to at least 300yds with them if not more and THEY WORK.

They used to ship to the UK I paid about £40 with postage I think.
You could buy a set and get them sent to one of our freinds in the USA and get them to post them to you in the UK may be.
They might be willing to send them to a dealer in the UK ask Adam (Dromia)he might know.
