This unique sight sold today on Ebay. I was tempted, but, resisted. (It went for $66, along with a 2nd 'knob-less' Krag Striker-Rod).
It appears well made, but, without provision for elevation or windage adjustment. I have never seen one like this before. I am not sure what holds it in place on the Striker-Knob?
I have used a Lyman sight that was 'dovetailed' into a 1903 Springfield Striker-Knob. That 'Flying Peep' made 'follow-through' a challenge! (I didn't like it, except as a curiosity).
