    Early meteor

    So I am on hols in Yorkshire and the owner of the place we are in knocks on the door with an old meteor, with a sight problem, the foresight blade looks like its been filed down , it's a dovetail, just a blade , think it's a MK1 can't find one in all the normal places, any idea where he might get one? Thanks for any help.

    Have you looked on the Protek site, Nick?

    They're showing Low in stock.

    Medium, High and Extra High out of stock.

    Would the "standard, Low" do? Will they get more of the taller ones in?

    I was also unaware of the different heights thing with them until I had a look yesterday evening. Hope he gets sorted.

    I am afraid the foresight required has a dovetail attaching it to the barrel.
