I've got a BRNO combination gun with 14.5mm dovetail, I can find medium height rings for it or weaver adapters (tradeex), both of which are way too high for my purposes. In a perfect world I'm trying to find a peep sight that mounts to the receiver or low rings, but feel like I'm runing out of places to find such a thing. Brownells, lyman, skinner, williams all came up with bupkiss short of drilling and tapping it for top mounting a universal one.

Any bright ideas for places to find weird euro things CGN?

The BRNO ZH's (and other compatible guns) were around for long enough that there's gotta be something out there for them!
 
Try Euro Optics or Optics-Trade. They give a good overview.
Recknagal and EWA catalogs can be found online for a review of all the available bits to put bases together.
Also New England Custom Gun is a good place for their peep sights. Iu ene on my 19mm rail - one needs to raise the front sight, but they are great peeps.
I know 11mm is BRNO/CZ .22 rails, 16mm is the 527 action size and 19mm is the 550 / 600 series. I cannot recall if that rail is 14mm or not.
 
Thanks, I tried Optics-Trade, but haven't been on Euro Optics or those other ones. New England looks promising, they don't list that dovetail, but I just fired them a message!
 
Go to a machine shop and find out what they will make for a case of beer , I’ve made my own rail with a dove tail cutter in 1/2 hour but I have an end mill
 
Try emailing Andy from Skinner, he has a lot of stuff that is not put on the sight that he either has in stock or can make easily.

The lo-pro may fit in one of the screw holes too...

I did, only thing he's got are screw down ones if I want to get someone to drill and tap the gun. If I come up empty I'll likely do the low pro so only one hole needs drilling.
 
BKL makes rings for 14mm or larger dovetails but whether these are strong enough I don't know as they cater mostly to airgun enthusiasts. They ship to Canada.
