Shots of the two basic types of sights used during the war. One on the left has the dovetail and the one on the right has a socket mount. Your mortar mounting used the socket type.





The bolts you were talking about are hard to figure out from the angle. With the cradle and sight adjustment area being incomplete, it could be that someone added bolts to fill the holes.
