I have an older Rossi 92 in .357 mag. that I would like to find a receiver mount all-steel site for. What model numbers should I be looking for at the gun shows and fleabay in Redfield and Lyman? Hoping I can get a good one in the neighborhood of $100.00?

This was a new, old stock Williams FP for a Remington 740 before I started "messing" with it. I think it was something like $13 off ebay, plus shipping and another few bucks for a couple screws from Williams.

It's all aluminum, but the point is that you can take one (even a steel one) made for another receiver and make it fit the flat recievers of the levers fairly easily. I could center the sight over the center of the reciever with a shim but it was wasn't even quite 1/16" off so I skipped the shim. There is way more windage adjustment than I could ever use and you have to actually look hard to see that the center windage division line is off-center from the reciever.

The comparable steel sights go for more, but there were several that I figured out would fit and this is the one I won, so I used it.
