we 416 folding front sight

so i want to put a folding front sight on my we 416.
The one that goes on the gas block.
I have the one from my jg 416 but the bolt that holds it is too wide to fit the hole in the we gas block.
Anyone know of any options? Should i maybe just drill the hole wider to acomodate the bolt from the jg one.
I dont really wanna buy a RS one for 200 bucks especially cause tgere is no telling if itll actually fit.
Anyone tryed the RS one or modified somethin to fit an airsoft one ti the WE gas block?

just drill through the block. not like that sight will be coming off it after it's installed. personally i find that front flipup sight to be too flimsy. i just use a set of magpul MBUS sights on my 416.

Yeah i wanna keep it all hk tho (as far as the gun itself havin issues finding corrdct silencer) just not a fan of the rail mounted sight and was thinking of adding a red dot and am not sure ill like the cowitness of the front sight. Guess ill try it and see and if i cant deal with it then mod it for the jg sight i have or hopefully someone else has an idea lol. I see a set of flip up sights that have the 416 style front sight but i really do like the diopter rear sight and the flip up front one is the wrong hight to work with it.
Well hopefully if i can find a red dot that either has a near perfect cowitness (ie the iron sights can be used through the red dot when its off and the red dot lines up just a lil above the iron sights when on) or if the high mount allows use of the iron sights thatll be fine too. Guesd ill bring my gun over to Huangs on thursday and try on a t1 and an eotech and see what works.
