    Diana 27 rear sight

    Hi folks, by any chance does anyone have a spare Diana 27 (1920s era) rear sight for sale? also can someone recommend a source of piston washers? Thanks for any help.

    Do you mean the type with an elevation screw or the latest r tangent type? The latter are the same as the Milbro made ones, indeed the Milbro may well be M and G surplus stock.

    Thanks for the replies. It is the type that fit into a dove-tail an the a leaf extends backwards with a (grub?) screw to raise and lower.

    Can you measure the dovetail? I am sitting here looking at a sight that has a dovetail max width of 13.7mm but could be filed down, the sight is 45mm long. Complete with elevation screw. Not sure what it came off. Any use?
    Cheers, Phil
