I have read that they are 11 mm and I have read they are 3/8".
Can anyone tell me for sure what size they are?
Thanks.

The Sig Trailside became the Hammerli X-Esse with few to no changes, as I recall. So my guess would be that it's an 11mm rail.

Thanks. My concern is that because trailside (at lease the name and engraving on the slide) was made specifically for the US market, that it has 3/8" rails. I read that in the posts here somewhere. I could always go with the BKL mounts and not care, but can be very hard to clamp down on the 3/8" rails.
I am not sure what this means, but ...

The Millett Angle-lock 30mm 3/8" vertical split rings arrived today. They are the best I could find in short notice and at <$11, quite a bargin. They fit the grooves perfect and are holding my UltraDot Match in place atop the barrel. Range report to follow.

I bought a set of 30mm to 11mm rings from Amazon for ~$10. They are really nice for the price. They fit great on the Trailside and hold my Matchdot 2 very well.
I put ~500 rounds through it no issue on the zero.
I have ordered Larry's mount, so I don't have to worry about re-zeroing.
I'll let you all know how that worksout.

Does Larry's mount fit the 4.5" barrel?

I do not believe so.
