I've got A BSA 9G and a Parker Hale PH5A and they're both very good. Either should fit a Lee Speed.
Have a look at the photos of Adam's Enfields in the other thread. Thats a BSA 9 style sight on the Lee
Metford and a PH5A on the SMLE.
Doesn't look like Adam bothers with the target sight on the Lee Metford, perhaps if you ask nicely
he might send it to you.

The target sight on the Lee Metford is for long range match shooting and doesn't click in 'till your at 300yrds plus. We we were shooting at 200 yesterday.
The ladder backsight on the Metford is actually a target sight for the Long Lees circa 1908 with a sliding sight bar for windage adjustments.
