For a first surface mirror try the site first surface mirror.com. The prices are reasonable and there is a choice if thickness. I got 1/4" thick to eliminate any chance of distortion with weight of level vials. First surface gives better results for all mid to low angle sights. With a regular mirror the ghost images make it hard to see coincidence or tangent.
