Mosdt of the time they are not a perfect fit and need to be sized. What size do you need?

My issue is the heights they provide do not work out with my soon to be cut ZKK-602 375 and its original rear sight. I need a lower height than the .362" minimum they offer. Appears I may get by if I use their lowest front sight @ .197" but would prefer a lower band and taller sight combo. I'll get out the caliper and check a bit more. I also have a Wisner band I need to dig up and check. I noticed a CZ 505 Gibbs for sale here that has a dovetail "riser" fitted into the factory rear sight island and then the original rear sight looks to be screwed (?) onto the riser base. No doubt the fatazzed muzzle diameter plays into it but I wonder if the fact that a lower front band not being available does too? Are there any other suppliers? Is London Guns still in business?

The manufacturer(Recknagel)sells them. NECG, though great, is just a distributor. NECG only stocks about 1/3 of the bases listed in the Recknagel catalog. NECG will be happy to order anything in the Recknagel catalog.

IME, NECG only stocks the "middle third" of what Recknagel manufactures.

ERA(Recknagel) has an online catalog. It is in German, so you might need to enlist the help of a kraut(KCStott) to decipher the listings.

I will confirm that NECG will get it for you. My mod 70 safari express which has a williams front and an eaa (or whatever the initials they use) rear on it I had to go higher because of my face shape yadda yadda, they had to get it from Germany but after a few weeks I had a new rear blade with just a tiny notch (could still file it if needed) to match the higher front blade I installed.

It'd be cool if we could get a translated catalog.
