xp-100 sights for flop

I have an xp-100 converted to rear grip. I tried the Bomar sights Saturday but since the gun was a Creedmoor setup the sights are just too wide.

What are some flop sight options? I have a couple Lyman and Redfield globe front sights. I don't have any way to mount to the barrel. The gun has a factory 7br barrel. I need a dovetail block or a ramp.

For the rear I am looking for a Williams fp-600. Does the receiver need drilled and tapped to mount?

If anyone has already been through this please let me know what has worked. I would like the sight picture to be hole on hole.

Thanks

Thanks Jackie. I will need to find a front sight base to mount the Lyman. The front sight that came with the gun is a hooded post type.

Redfield Olympic sight with factory drilled receiver and Redfield mount. A Lipski sight base lets you mount it on any Weaver scope base. Also, Champion Choice & Champion Shooters Supply sell the adaptor that lets you use a European diopter on the Redfield.

This pistol originally shot by Steve Riddle (25BRR) so I returned it to what it would have probably been when he shot it. The rear sight is a T/C 'Silhouette'.

If I get my xp setup to look that good I'm going to really need to learn how to shoot it.
