Good evening gents, I have tried Western Gun Parts with no luck. Besides the EE and Western and other good sources to find a front blade sight for a 20's vintage SRC?

Thanks

Brian
 
I think I've got one here but not 100%.

It measures out right on the height and has a 3/8" dovetail and gold bead. Only thing is that it's not marked Lyman 31 on it anywhere.
 
I think the one that Mad Dog has is not the right one, by the sound of it.
Joe, the pre 1920 Model 1894 that I have has a two piece front sight. The doe tail has a slot in it and the blade fits into the slot and is held by a pin.
I made the blade for one. I sawed a blade out of a piece of brass, but an old copper penny, one cent piece, is better to work with.
 
I've got it sitting in front of me, it's not a Lyman 31, it's a Marbles No. 5 which the book says is for Winchester 1894's in 25-35, 30-30 and 32 spl. Eyes are getting old.

Thanks MadDog for the offer but Bruce is correct in the style of sight. Looks exactly like this one, one of the other SRC's

Hope it woks out bud.... Feel free to send me a PM, I tracked down similar for a 32..... I actually enjoy searching for gun parts..... Especially whn I am not the guy missing them....
 
10-4 thank you for the offer! Looks like Wild Bill might have a line on one that he can get shortly so here's hoping. Thanks for the help once again guys, I'm never disappointed when I come here for help.
