Perhaps what the seller was referring to is that the OD you posted above has the second style rear site with two set screws,
The first version had only one set screw and looked like the one pictured below.

Thanks very much for the close up of the hammer step. I had read about that but never seen a close up like that before. The misunderstanding was mine regarding the sellers description of the gun and I interpreted his description incorrectly. Thanks to this post I now know definitively how to ID (or not) a K-22/40.
