Hey, it's hooligan!

You can use an M48 or 24/47 rear sight, as well.
Same goes for the bottom metal. For that matter, you could even use FN1924 pattern bottom metal, and any of the 1924 pattern derivatives that stayed with the intermediate length action. (Not the Vz24.)

Also, small ring Mauser bottom metal should fit. I have Spanish 1893s and 1916s, and that bottom metal does, in fact, fit my Yugo 1924 and 24/47. (Sorry, I didn't want to disassemble the M48 to try there.) 1895 pattern Mausers should be the same, but I do not have the parts with which to check fitment.

One or more of the above are in stock currently at:
Apex Gun Parts
eBay
Liberty Tree Collectors
Numrich (Gun Parts Corp)
Old Arms of Idaho (I have done business with them several times - they're safe.)
