To help give some clarity to this post; the OP sent me a reply to my question.

This is a tang sight, no windage that he has for sale.

The sight does have windage. It just wasn’t what I’m used to for location. Yippee Kia ay.

I have one of these Axtell long range Vernier tang sights.
The quality is first rate.

I do prefer the shorter staff of the SS version on my Sharps.
The reason is using a special wheel adjust Freund type rear sporting sight for hunting or shorter ranges. By tilting the Axtell long  staff forward, I can see through to my old Beach and line up Freund sight to  the ft sight w/o difficulty. Keep in mind to fit a jewelers velvet bag over the sight to protect sight and stock from slight scars.
