I have one of these rifles missing the rear sight aperture and would like to find one that will fit. Does anyone know where to find an original or another type that will fit?

Hi Royke. Welcome to the site! I don't know the answer to your question, but others here will likely chime in soon. Stay tuned....

That is likely an unobtainable part. However I imagine you could adapt a set of Lyman globe or diopter sights with a decent gunsmith.
There were so few of these rifles imported that I imagine some percentage of them will be missing parts like these.

Try Veli in Finland, he lists lots of M28/76 parts on Gun Broker.
Here is a link to one of his auctions on GB, where you can inquire if he may have the part you need.
