Sure, its the same sight, but.....because the 65 has a pistol grip, make sure you get the longer stock bolt that is made for the pistol grip. Personally, I have had and have many of the old original Lymans and the newer ones. The newer ones are almost junk unless they are reworked a bit. I've had stems come flying off. Spend a few extra bucks and get the Marbles that is also windage adjustable, plus if you specify the sight for the Model 65, they will give you the longer stock bolt that is needed.---------------------Sixgun

You might consider the Marbles tang sight instead... I just got one for my 94 project gun - very nice - but you do have to order the screws separately. The Marbles is windage adjustable - trust me, that's a great feature for a tang sight.
