Rear sights on springfield/stevens/savage model 53b

Question
My question is if a rear dovetail sight from a model 15 is the same as the rear sights on my model 53b. I was trying to gently bend sights back into place and apparently wasn't gentle enough. Just checking to see if those rear sights are compatible with both rifles.
Thanks for your time!
Answer
Hello Ryan,
I am not sure if the model 15 and the model 53B have compatible rear sights or not. Any qualified gunsmith should be able to make it work unless there are some significant modifications that have to be made to the gun or sight to make it work. Even still, from all I can tell, the rear sights of both guns should be the same and there should be little to no mod's needed in order to swap them out.
Best of luck!
