   I can remember someone saying they used to start with a block of steel and machine all the bits that didn't look like a rifle off.

   The magic number is 7 ....which is why the old 6x42 and 4x32 have always worked in poor light. A tiny M8 4x is 4x28mm so again hits that magic 7. All the good light your eyes can use.
