Hello, friends.

Looking to replace the front sight on my rifle, a Left Handed Zastava M70 in .375 Holland & Holland. I have a Talley Peep for use when the scope is off, but that factory front sight is leaving a LOT to be desired. I've looked all over, and cannot find one for the M70/Mark X/Remington 98 per se...So I guess what I am asking is this...are there any other makes/models with the same dovetail dimensions as the M70 sight (the blade itself, not the entire ramp), or one close that I can hand fit? Or would I be better off replacing the whole ramp assembly from a major manufacturer for known dimensions and parts availability?

Thanks in advance, and hope everybody on here is doing well.

You might try NECG. They sell sights to fit metric guns.good luck finding one.
 
When I decided not to use any more riflescopes on my rifle, and to use the metal sights that come on the Remington 700, swap out the original front sight for one of the XS brand ... and the rifle's quick-sight results are excellent.

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
