A2 front sight for pencil barrel

[bushmaster06]

I have a Bushmaster pencil barrel that came with a shaved A2 front sight block and would like to try to find an intact front sight block. My hope is that someone has a take-off in their stash that's already drilled for taper pins. I'm cheap and dont want to pay to have one installed with a virgin FSB.

Lmk if you don't find something local and I can dig through my stash. I know several are already set screw drilled/tapped.
What ID? I am guessing .750
Problem is, most tapir, taper wateverthefk pin holes don't always match alignment. You Usually end up having to do set screw with drilled dimples, in my experience.

The gas block journal is .625. I know it’s a long shot, but you never know.

Another thought, contact John Thomas (Retro Arms Works) he is the master at retro stuff and his prices and turnaround time are legendary.

Edit; OOH .625!!! Yeah that barrel is bad, send it to me for disposal!! LOL!!
