Default Sourdough front sight.

I'm looking for a good source for a 3/8 dovetail sourdough front sight to go in a front ramp. Does anyone have a good suggestion? Thanks.

Brownells seems to have some. Do these fit the bill?

It needs to be a 3/8 dovetail.

Maybe look into getting one larger than required and getting a machine shop to reduce the dimensions.

The only one making a sourdough that I know of is necg and it isn't for a 3/8".
I have made special inserts in the past but you have to really want one to be worth your time.... Not much useful info - sorry.

NECG has these. Skinner also makes one after a fashion. But yes, they are a pain to locate.
