My guess is you need the tallest blade you can find, which I believe is an "A".
If you cannot find the pin, one can easily be made from a small nail.
Bill is right, you need to find a A front sight blade, pick up a small nail, that fits tight in the hole, and trim to length.
The Gun Parts Corp blade are new made,but are "A" height.
