I have been looking at Husqvarna 46's and have a question about the sights. It appears that they have an 11 mm dovetail for the rear sights.

I am having heck finding a good place to get a replacement for an 11 mm dovetail rear. Anyone know of a good place to find a set?

I know that this is not the answer you are looking for, but I looked for a replacement rear sight also and could not find one. What I ended up doing was make a peep sight out of a swing swivel stud and tapping the cocking peace to make a poor man’s Rigby peep sight. Here is the link:

New England Custom Guns and Track of the Wolf have oversize rear sight blades you can cut down to fit the 11mm dovetail slot.
Other than that, keep checking the auction sites and hope you find one in this lifetime. Not poking fun at you. Many of the M46 rifles came into the US with the rear sight blade missing.
