What am I?

This sight came on a Ballard #3 gallery rifle, but is the wrong angle.  The base holes are more line 1.070 but the front has been slightly elongated.  There is no detent at vertical. just a protrusion to prevent it from tilting forward.  
The last photo shows it compared to a proper Ballard sight.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

I think I found it.  It looks very similar to this.  I will have to verify the screw spacing.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Weren't the tang sight Cape Outfitters and Jeff's Outfitters later sold all vernier type with elevation screw? At least the ones I bought and still have are.
