Would the Lyman #2 rear sight be compatible with the Win ’73?

I am especially thinking of the new Japanese ’73 Winchester which has the forward plugged hole for the sight.

Hopefully they put it in the correct location.

From what I’ve been able to tell it does have the drilled and tapped hole for the standard Lyman base. Now Lyman made different bases for different guns so you would need one for the 73.
