Can anyone recommend a scope mount for the Egyptian Hakim 8mm rife?

I think there is a real question as to whether things like that were ever made or are made now.  D_MAN made one up for his Hakim 8 and I have been looking for one for my Ljungman 6.5 (same style action) but without any luck.

I think you would have to take the rifle to a gunsmith and have a sight base made to specifically fit your rifle.  Then mount a scope and rings to it. 

My Ljungman came with 3 holes drilled and tapped, just under the stock on the left side of the action, right where you would mount a scope base but I have never been able to find one.  I am sure they are out there but it is beyond me as to how and where to find information about them.  I hope someone with more functional brain matter than I have can chime in with some good advice.  Mikey.

 It has been my understanding that there never was a scope mount developed for the AG42B by the Swedes, That the three holes in the reciever were used as part of the manufacturing process.

There was a sniper Variant of the AG42.
I have never seen a Hakim Sniper.
I though I did once but it was A Soviet
mount that Bubba Had installed.
It was functional though.
The AG42 had a mount that looked kind of
like the mount for a G3. Not sure how it attached.
