Replacing the rear sight questions

My daughter shoots an FWB 2700 Leight.

The rear sight has come apart. I am looking to purchase a new sight. Are Centra, MEC, Gehman my only options for aftermarket sights that will fit on an FWB dovetail?

Gehmann, MEC/Centra and Tec-hro are the main third-party manufacturers of rear sights.

Here are some good quality/prices diopters (used german retailer website just for reference, prices may differ ofc)
- Centra Pro57, really affordable, 20 clicks per turn : https://www.keuchen.de/product_info.php ... ts_id/1079
- Hammerli 462 (Hammerli maked really reliable rear-sights) : https://www.keuchen.de/product_info.php ... ts_id/1194
- Gehmann 598, also very reliable : https://www.keuchen.de/product_info.php ... ts_id/1658
- Tec-hro Precise, not so popular, but the firm is recognized for theirs others products like tripod and buttplate : https://tec-hro.de/schiesssport/en/spor ... sight.html


You can also reorder from the rifle makers. Currently i have on my FWB P700, an Anschutz 7002 that fit perfectly.

I use a Tec-Hro rear sight on my 2700, purchased from a member here. I use it in conjunction with Centra bases front and rear.
