If you don't mind the pinched sight of the Remington, VTIgunparts has them, the Uberti sight is dovetailed.  The dovetail is 74 degree.  I see the R&S had a brass or silver post.

I have already perused (sic) all of the known parts suppliers. Dixie used to show the dovetailed sight (cone type). I would gather they are using a different supplier now that supplies the sight as a screw in (which is cool and might be nice on a colt artridge conversion). I believe the originals would have been German silver maybe? Anyway, this is for a Beals Army lookalike that I started on last year.

I guess I am hoping someone has one of the old stock from Dixie that they aren't using.

Thanks! ;)
