Picked up a nice Interarms Whitworth full stocked rifle in 7x57. It is missing the rear sight. Was wondering if anyone had one or could point me in the right direction. Thanks for your time. https://postimg.cc/gallery/YGvfBYj

Measure the hole spacing and call Brian the sight tech at Williams. He helped me with a replacement slide for a rear sight on an old BSA rifle that was missing the slide lock ring.

got front and rear with the screws, 50.00 plus shipping, this is probably cheaper than buying just the rear. rear site doesn't have makers name.

No, no, NO! I mean, you ((can)) just get some aluminum garbage ramp sight (no offense to anyone - seriously), but A rifle like that deserves nothing more than a Whitworth rear sight like this one: https://www.sarcoinc.com/mk10-mauser-folding-leaf-sight-without-base/Finding one with a base might be a bit hard and a little pricey, but the lines you're going to put on that rifle is going to be amazing!
Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled guns yearning to shoot free, The wretched refuse of your teeming safes and gun racks.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door of my workbench.

I saw a couple on eBay for like $28-30 be rolling the dice unless you could get to measure the hole spacing.
