I bought one from John Knibbs last year - not particularly cheap but it fitted the dovetail perfectly.
some one out there must have one kicking around.
Thanks,
Mike.
Why is it called tourist season if we can't shoot at them?

Cadet sight looks similar to the front sight from a BSA underlever pre 1939. You could make a dovetail block from a piece of mild steel bar, drill and fix a suitable sight blade. I made a dovetail block for a Meteor Mark 1 rear sight from a piece of alu bar (the alu bends to fit the steel barrel dovetail)and fitted a brass strip rear sight to the alu block...not a work of art but works fine. You can make a pattern with a piece of plasticine or similar.

If someone was kind enough to give me the taper measurements of their original sight I will see what I have got
I used to repair and restore airguns but time became short so still have several I collected on the way.
Good luck, they are a great bunch on here and I am sure someone will help
