Default ***NEED HELP** Locating OLD SIGHTS

I need some help concerning the old sights of yesteryear. I was wondering if anyone knows if they still make these sights and if so, who might sell them. I started bowhunting in the late 70's and this type of sight was very popular before all the new fangled sites can into existance.
It was made by BEAR and it had the 3/8" slotted track for the site pins. It also came with a guard that went around it that protected the site pins. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

There was a guy that came into Gander the other day with some old bows he was looking to setup. They both had those old sights. If I see him again should I let him know your interested in them??

Thanks Ohio Bowhunter75. Can't seem to find them anywhere, even on E-bay. Really liked the old sights, learned on them and just feel more comfortable with them instead of all these new gadjets on the market, especially with some of the outragous prices.
Thanks again and good hunting.
