Sort of,
a decision was taken to move to all "simple" sights; but old parts continued to be used up.
Rarely a matching fine tune rear sight will show up on a 1918- I think two have been reported.
In 1917 there is a general trend from both fine tuned to both "fixed" as production progressed, but fine tune sights show up till the end of 1917.
No hard or fast rule!
