Identify a rear sight?

Was on a Stevens. No marking. Want to use it on a Lever gun but need a different aperture. Any clue so I might find some apertures or an adjustable? The eye cup next to it is off a Shaver I believe. It starts but thread binds.

I agree with KensBullard ... its a Winchester staff on a Stevens base.

What kind of lever gun ? Reason I ask is because a Stevens base fits no lever gun that I am aware of.

Looks like a Stevens sight to me. Stevens staffs are similar to Winchesters.  Look in Rowes book of sights.

The staff and base look like they have been together a long time. Came off a Steven’s 47. 

May want to graft it onto a Rossi 92. Angle and height are correct. 

The eye cup from the Shaver will not screw into it. Try’s but thread binds pretty quick. 

Was wondering if anyone knew off hand the thread pitch so I could either get a few more appropriate eye cups or an adjustable one.
