I would like to try to rreplace the original (style) iron sights on an old Winchester model 1885 low-wall.

Can anyone please identify the original style sights? I believe it was a Lyman sight of sorts, mounted on the tang.

Thanks for any help.

  Winchester frequently used a Lyman No. 1 or No. 2 tang sight on the Model 1885. When a Lyman No. 2 tang sight was factory installed, a Beach Combination or a Lyman No. 5B combination front sight was also frequently installed.
