If you are looking for the "Tombstone" type, meaning the simple small metal one, that you drift side to side for windage,,,,,,, They can be made very easy with a piece of "bar stock", or upside down "T" bar.
Just file the piece to make it fit your dovetail, make it 3/8th in tall, and file a "V", or straight notch in it, and you are done. File the notch for what ever powder charge and projectile you are going to use.
Easy peasy.

Hard to tell from photos, but photos of the rear sight on Zoli Mississippi rifles look like they may be the same as what’s on my Pedersoli. Might be able to get one from Pedersoli?
 
I am trying to get this one back into an earlier configuration. Adding a long range sight also entails other modifications if one's goal is to make the rifle correct to the period.

Cool. Just giving you an option you may not be aware of. If HC is your goal it will be a long journey with a Zoli.

A Zoli '41 can be put back in original configurations as far as the sights. It wouldn't be a long journey with the Zoli as far as getting it close. I am not new at this and have had years of experience with Civil War reproductions.
