I think I have one, will look and get back to you tomorrow. Rayant
Yes--I have the front and rear sight for 788 Remington. Rayant
Ryant - Sent you a PM - The Long Version rear sight base is the only part really needed

I have one not sure if it's a long one how fare is it between the mounting screws

The Mounting screw distance is the same on both Long and Short

If no one else has one let me know the center to center distance for the mounting screws I may have one.
Facta non verba
That's Not it - Look on ebay at "Remington 788 rear sight" and you will see the Long version of just the sight base. If I can't find one here, i'll just get one there

Sorry I tried hope you find one

The rear sight hole spacing on both my 7mm-08 and 30-30 rem 788 barrels is 0.5715". I read somewhere one sight would be taller than the other, considering the calibers barrel length, or vise versa. Makes sense but I never researched the height differences as both my 788's are scoped.

Gun Parts Corp has them right now.
I just looked because surely everyone didn’t chunk them like we did in our ignorance.
