I ask because I just noticed I have two kinds of sights on my guns. The Palmer guns have the exact same sight on both the .357 and .44 and they are 2 piece sights. On the Monson guns it's a one piece rear sight. The Monsons are from 78 and 81.

This discussion is covered in one of the history threads--but, I need to update it with a 2 pc sight.  Bottom line is there are a few.

It would be nice to know what sights are interchangeable. The main body of the sights on my Palmers are more wide and wouldn't fit in the channel in the frame of one of my older ones. It appears in that thread that there are only two sights ever used or I must be misunderstanding something.

Warner -

 We just had a discussion on this a couple days ago after Walt put his stock clearance on ebay and threw everyone into a tizzy since the Milletts are so desirable.  I believe it's over in the parts and service section.  If you have a different sight than what we have covered, please post up some pics so we can figure out what it is.

My factory .357, .41, 44 mag. all have different rear sight screws. The sights may be similar but they may have different rear sight screws.
