old style front of riser sights
does anyone here know of a company making the older style sights (60's-70's) that attached to the front of the riser ?

any suggestions on stores that have been around for long enough to be worth contacting?

Do you mean the sight rail attaches to the front of the bow?

I may have a couple of the sights that I've removed from abused bows. You should see what damage people have done to my pretty one pieces in the past. Worth more than £2 a month!

I need the sight rails to keep the holes on the front filled but I might be able to find a sight block you could have, it would need a new sticky out-screwy-windage bit though and they could be the hard to get. Oh and postage might be alot!

Oh and as long as you don't use it to abuse a defenceless bow!
