Does anyone know where I can buy a new front sight hood for a Finnbear?

Me too...I need one for a Forester...???

Yep, those little buggers can sure get away. I need three of them, if anyone has any luck locating a source. As far as I know, they are identical no matter what action, caliber, or date of manufacture (at least all of mine are).

stonecreek, you have a p.m.

All the Sako's I've owned (mannlichers) made before 1996 had standard Williams sights on them. You can find the hoods in the Brownell's catalog for about $5.

Good luck. I can't find one either. While the Mannlicher stocked guns use Williams front ramps, your rifle does not. Try my solution. Torch, melt silver solder, remove ramp, reblue.

I have 2 hoods. One off an L46 and the other off an L579. What are they worth?
