Could someone that has one, please measure the front sight height from the dovetail? My Safari Express bounced out of the gun rack in the back of a Land Cruiser in Zimbabwe and broke the front sight off at the narrow portion below the bead. I need to order a new one and don't know the height. The rifle is about 10 years old, Safari Express CRF. The front sight was a white bead but I think I might order a Marbles with the brass bead. Thanks for any help.

I will do it in about half an hour unless someone beats me to it.

I get .375 for the total height of the sight from the bottom of the dovetail to the top of the bead.

I get .275 that is above the height of the ramp itself.

Lemme know if you need anything else.
