    what do you mean by open sights? the only open sights i can think of are part of the gun- the front sight is fixed, the rear sight adjustable. if yours came with the rear sight removed, you've been sold damaged goods.

    You could try a wanted section post for a broken Dan Wesson for spares, replacement parts are not easily available and although you could probably get a full bore pistol sight to fit the cost would be 2/3 to 3/4 of the cost of a new Dan Wesson pistol,

    Might be a silly question but it's not a Umarex Smith & Wesson you have?

    You remove the rear sight on them to fit a rail but on the BB Dan Wesson you don't.

    odd that you were sold even a 2nd hand wesson without the rear sight, as the rear sight need never be removed- the vendor should've warned any potential buyers of this, as it basically means selling damaged goods.
