Merry Christmas eve chas.

These are not factory but certainly fit the bill.

EDIT- You need the screws to mount the Lyman 41 AT "aka 41R" receiver mounted sight? If you corresponded with the gentleman at apertures and more he might be able to help you.

Was not able to locate 5-48 screws anywhere including Lyman. However, I was able to purchase an assortment of 5-44 cap screws. They screwed right in the existing 3 holes. Had to use a drill with a file to reduce diameter of screw head to fit into the counter bore of sight holes.
