I think I have identified this as being a 98A for the Model 71, but would like to be 100% sure. I have seen a couple others that are shorter & have different contouring on the bottom, those I think were for the Model 65's or other Model 92 based actions, would these be 98C's? Was there also a 98B? Hopefully someone can help with a positively identification.
I have not seen one with the nut on the elevation screw, but I think it might be the correct piece because of the rounded top which would allow it to swivel as the sight was adjusted, The eye piece was not acquired with the sight but is a modern one that looked close to the originals, might be a bit to long.
As an added note I looked up the patent so see if it showed the nut on the elevation screw, that patent does not show this sight, about the only thing it might have in common is possibly some features of the elevation screw - and I think even that's a stretch.
